Since I don't have an extremely large portfolio yet, I am thinking of a part time assistant/property manager to serve as the primary point of contact for tenants, prospective tenants, venders & contractors..

Tenant selection is extremely important when investing.

They communicate consistently (in fact i have my own personal customer service rep), the owner is extremely knowledgeable about economics and investing and the company is a fun group to work with.

Hello, I am new to Real Estate Investment, but extremely determined to be successful.

I’ve done an extensive amount of research on how it works and I’ve got a great understanding of the basics I’m a new investor and I’m extremely eager to get my first deal underway.

I eventually settled on Atlanta for the reasons previously mentioned and also because I found property managers/agents at Excalibur Homes to be extremely responsive and helpful.I did a lot of searching for homes, I made my own excel sheet with formulas to plug in numbers on properties.

Seriously extremely helpful!

I think it might make more sense for me to live in the house to eliminate holding costs and do some of the rehab myself (which I know nothing about).My goal is to make $2000 per month of passive income from rentals, heck even $800 would be a life changing amount, but my current life situation makes it extremely difficult for me to save money and leaves me with little to spend, thus I can only afford maybe a $40k mortgage.It's really difficult to see where I can fit into this, maybe I'm just fooling myself and I cannot enter real estate?

Account Closed As for the website, I guess its extremely emphasized haha. 

Not on the landlord insurance, but they've been extremely easy to work with on the other side of it with their renters insurance.
