There's a lot of movement by a handful of Federal regulating bodies that are pushing to provide honesty and transparency up front for consumers.

You can schedule a call with me and i can go over the specifics of how it works.  

I will be calling the County Trustee's office to inquire further, but if anyone has any advice or has experience with Williamson County specifically, I really could use some help.Truly, any and all information helps.

I am under contract for 3 properties, however there is one thing about it, one of them, its located in South Memphis zip 38109 (Mallory area).I know I know I live in Memphis, I know that the area is bad, however I am feeling that the market it pushing investors towards the hoods of memphis because it is getting expensive (even Frayser is getting crazy expensive which I find crazy), I did a few visits in that specific neighborhood and I honestly didn't feel it was really really bad as the rest of South Memphis, I am really not worried about tenants paying on time in my rentals because I always focus on Section8.Was wondering what are peoples insight in regards to investing in those areas with section8 tenants?

Social Industrial Conference is beginning of May and Industrial touches all the big commercial players.Don't be frustrated if you don't make the connections you want right away.

There is no way to know what the lending landscape and his options will be in five years from now - that type of loan could still be available or there could be some differences - including nuance with the specific property, location, etc

(BTW, I've created a spreadsheet to estimate the rental income required to qualify for specific properties and am happy to share it with anyone interested).After conducting some research and attending open houses, I found very few properties that meet my financial criteria within San Diego.

As a PM, I would be worried if a new owner did not ask me at least some of the following:- Company Specifics: first question should be are they licensed (how many properties do you manage, what type/class of properties do you manage, how many property managers on the team, how many years have they been in operation)- Pricing (what is the cost to manage the property (ies), is there a leasing fee (commission structure), is there an onboarding fee, is there an early termination cost, are there ad-hoc costs for maintenance, tenant screening, or miscellaneous costs - such as to appear in court if you have an eviction)- Service offerings (do you have a maintenance team, do you come equipped with a list of contractors/vendors, do you offer the software and portal access for tenants/owners, etc.)- Financial Services (you (owner) should think about what you want the PM to handle, if it is everything from paying bills to insurance procurement to P&L statements then ask that, if you don't want the PM so heavily involved in financials and just more on the surface level of the operations of the property then that is okay too!

Meeting local investors and attending meetups is a fantastic way to expand your knowledge and network in the industry.

i don't do/invest in residential real estate but perhaps it would be possible to learn SFR by getting job in property management, also get RE agent license, then once you have learned a fair bit, form a syndication with yourself as GP, get your college friends, their families, and anyone you know to invest as limited partners, then buy a rental house for cash, and you take 20-25% equity and provide the property management for a % of the rent, whatever is industry standard.
