I opted to go through a turnkey provider as I was willing to sacrifice a bit in the way of profits if it meant a greater chance at getting my first deal under my belt.After the mortgage, management fee, insurance, taxes, and maintenance reserves, cash flow is about $180/month, which equates to about a 10% annual cash-on-cash return.Thanks to everyone who has contributed here over the years as I'm one of the many beneficiaries of this fine community!

I understand nobody here is giving me qualified legal advice, because I haven't asked anyone here to give me qualified legal advice.I'm asking whether anyone (like someone who owns small MF homes) has had any experience with this sort of thing, if anyone (like a lender, real estate agent, or experienced investor) is familiar with FHA regulations, if anyone (again, like a lender, real estate agent, or experienced investor) knows about some type of bank loan or opportunity I may not be considering.I'm asking people here what THEY can contribute.
