I’m a high-income earner and just received a substantial tax bill, so I want to make sure I’m getting everything right from the start.To give some context, I currently own one rental property where my dad resides.

I am an agent and property manager, so I represent myself and manage my own properties.

of thousands of dollars in lost productivity, so the business is likely a lot less price-concerned than other residents. 

Hence if I were in your scenario, I would be targeting properties in the Texas market, preferably at least an hour or so away.

Have your eyes wide open - your first few buy close to home so understand the process.

So is MTR arbitrage only for newbies?

I have been doing my own taxes my whole life (56 now) and have 5 rentals (don't want anymore) so i feel comfortable about 95% of the time when filling them out.  

There are so many options out there that bring technology to properties that residents would rather interact with, like texting, etc.

For my situation being away from home so often(I'm a Michigan resident), this would still allow me to participate in real estate but be diversified beyond a syndication.

We cover 6 counties in Central Florida, so you'll have plenty of networking opportunities with other local investors and all types of business members that offer every service you could need.
