Do you have / will you dedicate time to the rent collection software, record keeping, etc. or is it easier for you to pay the attorney fee and know it's taken care of and off your plate, essentially.

I have created 8 hours of video content, 1 of which is dedicated to explaining what makes up the Ohio REI market, you can see at ohiorem.com Price and affordability is just one of many aspects.

My husband and I took the plunge and signed up for the dedicated course in Feb 2021.

So I dedicated myself to a few things and try to stick to getting out to them.

I know this business takes time and true dedication.

Execution - You can learn all of it (almost for free) if you dedicate enough time to the process.

BiggerPockets has a team dedicated to customer support and helping out with these types of issues as they arise.

So, if you're going to work in some area, you want to dedicate some serious time to looking at properties.

I know in the past I was thinking of doing a B&B on a property in northern California and found associations dedicated to those, and was able to get rents on rooms, amenities offered, etc., and thought maybe the VR market was similar.
