However, find another lender if they are asking for money up front to be safe. 

@Troy Scottaline a safe bet is you can get somewhere from 6-8% cash on cash return after all expenses are paid on your investments.So if you want to live on over $100,000K per year and do nothing but manage rentals or manage a property manager you will need well over $1,000,000 to invest.

However, they partner with Twillio for calls and txt which they don’t mark numbers as safe or not after campaigns  Your input is greatly appreciated.Systems I’m using: Propstream, BatchLeads, and BatchDialer  

Your job is to supply a safe place to live and address any legitimate problems/issue that arise.

thank you all, sounds like I should assume at least 10k just to be safe for now. and keep it in mind while saving

Your best bet is to try areas outside of the 285 perimeter or go direct to seller.
