., "Discussed renovation plans with GC for STR property").

I would say that a great thing any flipper can do is develop their own off-market properties.

I asked if they would consider seller financing on the property and they said, “yes”.

When I closed on my first duplex in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania in August 2017, "the 2% Rule" was the gold standard for determining whether a property would cash flow.  

I have decided to partner up with another investor to buy this property together.

I want to buy & hold appreciating properties in neighborhoods where I can find decent tenants.

As a San Jose licensed property manager and investor, a 5% flat fee can be reasonable depending on the property. 

The key is to create an amazing property, in a great location, then manage and market it better than the sub-par property managers in the area. 

We play games called, "lets show the property to a perspective tenant" and "lets go to closing together" and "lets deposit money in your bank account" and "lets review your college fund investments".

When it comes to 2-4 units not all markets are created equal. the northeast and midwest tend to have a lot more market for these properties then do newer areas of the south and west.
