Dollars to doughnuts, someone complained who lost money or thought they were getting messed with or there was some public type solicitation for investors caught the eye or ear of some regulator.

I'll give you a ring sometime next week.

And Ring Doorbell Camera's have been a great help.

Ultimately, you end up picking the real estate team (and his/her/their resources) as much as the city itself, bc your success ultimately depends on their ability to be your eyes and ears managing your asset.

The best cash flowing markets are often not advisable for beginning investors--even less so for beginners trying to operate as a partnership, and even less so for beginners trying to operate as a partnership on OOS investments (all of which makes the operation exponentially more challenging, and nearly impossible in the C and D grade areas that have the best cashflow)....now, if someone out there knows of a cashflowing A or B market with plentiful tenants and PMs, a strong and diverse economy, and low vacancy, I'm all ears  ;)    (but, as @Mike Dymski mentioned, if such a market exists, the local operators are understandably keeping it a secret).Does this mean it's impossible to get cashflow on manageable property?

Knock many times, ring the door bell, call out before/after you open the door, and as you walk through.

I am not sure if you have familial or employment engagements already but Murphy's Law states your phone will ring with "emergencies" at the worst possible times.- Property Management Pros: A good PM can get you on a lot more booking channels. 

If you have any contacts that might want to earn some extra money by helping out with odd jobs or doing some management on the side, I’d be all ears.  

Does this ring the alarm bells or what?

@Nadine O.Let me throw Indianapolis into the ring.
