As far as golf goes, I measure my games in how many balls I lose in the desert but I’m always ready to have an adult beverage on the front 9 and back 9.

But the rate is brutal like 8% and that will just kill the game of rental investing.

Nothing to say it's impossible, but on average you'd do just as good (with index funds, etc) if you are in it for the long game-obviously if you are in it purely for the cash flow and immediacy of funds coming into bank account consistently- with a tax shield in place, then disregard.

If they sell you a property and then sign you off to a third-party PM, that's another team you need to vet, and means the TK company has less skin in the game (ie once you close, their work is done).They should have solid, data-backed answers to your questions at-the-ready.

Investors are better off losing the deal than getting into a situation where major repairs come as a surprise after the fact.Likewise, investors are ahead of the game when they do their due diligence on the contractors performing the rehab work.

A lot will depend on your bandwidth and time commitment. 2) Once you figure it out, you can look into different niches within the options available for either active or passive investors.3) Educating yourself on the option selected is must.4) Take action once you have the power of knowledge in you.Best!

I do not need hand holding or anything like that, I just think it is important to have someone who has been in the real estate "game" on your side.

I like that I can select addendums, create custom addendums, and digitally sign the leases.
