Online was perfect for me because I run another business and have a large family.

At the moment it seems the best thing for me to do is to continue to talk to people for advice and information.  

Do same when you move in a new place   If your LL doesnt give you a form keep notes of anything damaged when you moved in. 

For me, both ticked all of the boxes for investing but price. 

This creates a bit of a conundrum to me as I really wasn’t planning to buy something this early, essentially moving my one year of waiting into potentially 4-8 weeks.So, the knowledge base I have so far comes in the form of around 30 BP podcasts, Brandon’s two books on rental property investing (read ~3 times), as well as the newly released investing guide by Josh and Brandon.

I think there is potential for me to buy the property and subdivide it to build 3 or 4 houses and keep one for myself.

What is the best option for me at this point.

I think that would be a good idea, since the real obstacle for me is getting the savings for a down payment setup.

It's not professional for me to speak badly about another Philadelphia Property Management Company; but we have taken over clients from these guys....and I just hate, absolutely hate to see this stuff.Property management is regulated and a licensed activity.

They are both similar in that they are both forms of seller financing, but that's where the similarity ends.I won't do S2's, but I'll do L/O all day.
