We all know it exists, but no one knows where to look, fewer even try, and only small minority ever get that lucky.I think the "you need a mentor" propaganda is propagated online by the gurus that want to sell you access to themselves or some other product or service that lines their pockets.Bottom line: Very few people give away anything for free.

@Derek Askew Great question — you may want to look into a service that offers a nice portfolio of tools to make managing your own rental super easy (that includes tools to list your unit, screen tenants, create digital leases, collect rent online and manage maintenance requests).

If you are looking to buy 50K houses, that doesn't exist in your state, but those investments tend to be risky and best suited for experienced, local operators.Hi Brian,I wouldn't necessarily agree that due to a population decline in a state or city that's it's not a good investment.The micro economics paint a different picture than what can be found out online via research.There are areas in my market that are booming with sales and rentals flying of the shelf even tho the broad market is showing a decline in population.I think that majority of the markets in the Midwest are showing a decline on population anyway lolSomething that I have preached to investors for years now is that finding the right team to work with is more important than focusing on just the online stats/demographics.You are correct tho regarding turnkey outfits.Most are very shady and do oversell properties.Something that isn't a deal breaker as long as the property management is solid.In most cases it isn't so that kills the deal completely.Just my opinion.Thanks

Since it sounds like your main goal is to get to $25k a month (first benchmark; and then 50k, and then 100k) and you're focusing primarily on turnkey properties, could be worthwhile to consider an online rental management solution which can help to automate managing those turnkey properties.
