Like everything do your due diligence.

I'll be sure to do my due diligence so that I can avoid the pitfalls in which other investors have failed. 

With a HH, you can learn how to analyze properties & markets, how to find an investor-friendly agent, how to spot value-add opportunities at properties, how to engage in a strong due diligence process, how to screen tenants, how to manage the property, how to build a network of contractors, plumbers, electricians and other pros, how to manage the book keeping of the property, etc., etc., etc.

Generally property is easier to sell, takes less time for a buyer to do due diligence and more straight forward.

There is still some up front due diligence involved with passive investing to choose the right partners that you'll be investing with and understanding the deal and market, but after that it's all hands off.  

Or tell them to write the offer here and let’s tie it up, always leave yourself a contingency for any issues and due diligence. 

Bottom line- It's a great market if you just do your due diligence.
