Don't ever get into business with friends or family if there is even the slightest chance it could interfere with your relationship.I have a 17-year-old daughter that is saving up to do the same thing.

https://www.getaway.co/faqsNot sure if anyone ever followed up with this company, so I scheduled a call with them today to get the details, and I’ll share what I found out for future readers of this thread.  

Fannie Mae changed their guidelines now where you can go and do another house hack and buy a 2-4 unit property with only 5% down.

Your Network = Your Net-worth"Been watching Evernest's video's and they share a ton on "everything and anything" property management related so that's been a blessing.Biggest take away when it comes to scaling a PM is to spread the word about what you're looking at doing and to build relationships.Local real estate events, NARPM, IMN, etc...You want everyone to think of you if they are looking at selling or if they know of anyone looking at selling.I use to be "loud and proud" and a huge extrovert but I guess "old age" has got me hahaI prefer drinking coffee and smoking a cigar behind closed doors.But, I guess I'll have to start "shaking hands" and "kissing babies" like a president when it comes to networking again lolMaybe even do a few video's while not wearing any pants heheBig hat's down to Matthew Whitaker for scaling the business so much.I remember spending some time together in Birmingham when he had a decent sized operation of around 1,200 units or so.Now they are 16,000+ 👏HUGE...We initially met as I was interested in selling our property management company in Toledo and now we are looking at acquiring others heheTime flies, things change and life is funny.Thanks everyone for your contribution and wishing you much success

I am ready to make some changes that will be beneficial to me in my financial future.
