So my real estate goal is to have at least a dozen SFH of decent quality at early retirement age(55) to carry me to full retirement(62) without having to have excessive early withdrawal penalties.

This will eliminate the biggest hit financially and when done by yourself will end up with better quality tenants.

But never select the company directly who quote minimal charges as all of us understand that quality never will come in reduced rates therefore greater to learn about the solutions and prices and then choose for employing them or not.Lease Variety: Property administration companies have a great idea of creating rent price while they know industry demands and your house value.

My approach is very simple in a situation such as yours since the new higher rents will attract better quality tenants.

Last year i patched together a few subs and the timelines and quality of work was not what i'd like to keep working with.If any of you have any rec's for a good GC that can handle rental quality rehab work, please pass along their info!

That is, would any bank look at the quality of our deals as opposed to our income stream?

It sounds like most people are in the 110-120 range for a quality product.

These house tend to attract high quality tenants which has kept management easier.

Not the schools or restaurants or the quality of living. 

You also develop a relationship as a closer and then property owners, retail management companies, other brokerages, developers are drawn to you because your buyer pool for quality is high.
