If you are managing a multi family remotely, you will have the ability to fly in and really inspect the place personally, when you make a decision to do something, it can be applied to all units rather than just a unique situation in an SFR (all sfr's are beautiful snowflakes) The disadvantage is that if things start to slip from your control it will effect the quality of the entire property, encourage the good tenants to want to move out and bad ones to move in.  

We picked out a beautiful 'leftover' slab that was unused from a previous large installation that was big enough to complete her kitchen.

My dog and I love hiking together and we love going to Zilker for the lake and the beautiful trails around Barton.Any advice on the steps I should take in order to become an investor or friendship would be greatly appreciated!

For example I bought white tile for a vacation rental once because it was beautiful and on sale, then as soon as it was down I realized how much it would take (cost) to make it look clean between rentals and I hated myself.
