They understand that there's value in what they provide, which is steady, documented income, minimal turnover, steady payment, quality references, no drama, and peace of mind.

IE at the time if you built on all the hundreds of thousands of lots there you would have perpetual grid lock not to mention water quality etc etc.

Thank you all for the warm welcome and outstanding advice.

All of us have stable jobs and no other outstanding concerns.

hey tim, i should have been more clear. i will be doing all of the property management per se, just looking for an organizational tool via an app or software that will consolidate the communication for my duties. i only have one out of state property and just dont think the amount paid is worth the relatively low stress of this specific quality property and tenant pool. i will look into stessa and buildium- thank you for the recs!

I’m eager to learn the process and take actionable steps.I’m particularly interested in acquiring land and identifying creative ways to add value, whether through flipping, owner financing, or long-term holds.My long-term vision includes owning rental properties, possibly starting with a multi-family home where I can live in one unit and rent out the others.I’m also exploring opportunities in modular housing and small community developments to fill a growing demand for affordable yet modern housing solutions.Outside of real estate, I have a background in auto detailing and entrepreneurship, which has taught me the importance of quality, attention to detail, and perseverance.

Biggest thing IMO is getting close to the train station and have a high quality units that may not look attractive on paper the first few years but will have the ability to raise rents consistently long term. 

The other qualities of being successful is just consistency, do it daily.  **** is hard, but that's the reason not everyone is successful. 

We will not work with anyone who has not been to Milwaukee and spent at least a couple days with us, so we can get on the same page on asset and neighborhood quality. 

The big thing is to get started with a good, quality property.
