@Kyle Reynolds I'm impressed with how you're thinking about this.

If you love it and are looking at it as a way to give back, keep your fees low and select students that you really want to work with over the long term.

Then move on to data analysis to down select and stack rank from there.

The market of bank real estate asset wholeselling for example is very closed to a select few companies that invest millions of dollars, but when you see that big names like credit suisse invested over 150 million euros last year with one local bank's properties you have to wonder why these guys are puting so many eggs in this basket. 

Account Closed@Nathan G.Also, the fact that nicky went straight to the part about being able to buy pizza in Venezuela with BTC and it not being impressive, which isn't a big deal to me either - much like fact that Iran's central banks are also buying BTC, while ignoring all the rest of the information - the billions of dollars flowing in, shows me where his mind is at. 

While I am sure there are good operators on those sites, my impression is it is sort of the lazy way out.  

Hiring a Property ManagerManaging Yourself:Control: You have direct control over tenant selection, maintenance decisions, and overall management style.Cost Savings: You save on property management fees, which can range from 8-12% of monthly rental income.Challenges: Being across the country means responding to emergencies or maintenance issues can be tough.

Do you due diligence when selecting renters!

I hear the list hasn't changed much from that impression, but haven't looked recently.I have 13 SFRs and 3 are rented through Section 8.

I haven’t heard great things about Guesty for Pros, and I wasn’t impressed when I did a demo with them either.I use Hostaway now however and highly recommend them.
