I used to not keep a board up but now with running marketing campaigns, juggling leads, and managing flip properties; I feel like I have to have one.

But a basic turn-key package was going to run me $175,000 - $185,000  in addition to what I had into it and the numbers didn't work at that price.So now I have a nice 1 acre lot with a foundation, well, and electric for $25,000. 

I think our industry needs a set of KPI's (Key Performance Indicators) of its own; asking ourselves "what are the most important items we need to track so we are as successful as we can be" and use these numbers as a benchmark for performance, comparing them with like minded owner/operators.   

what keyed you to that area?

When they doubled in price, I 1031 exchanged them for apartment complexes in 2015, 2016, and 2017.The key is to defer, defer, defer, defer your taxes and then die.  

I figured I could just play stupid and say I thought they moved out but never got their key back so I changed the lock.

Do you have a realtor on board yet to help you find the property you seek?

I am sure if you use some key words you can draw the attention of the realtors in your area here on BP.

Unless a State Administrator tells you different as far as state is concerned about its laws I would do it per the state law and give them 60 days notice on their vacating along with a month-to-month lease or do the "cash for keys" deal a try. 

Having a good reliable team such as PM's and contractors  is key and can be hard to find in the area.
