Anyway, these two are in different states and are handled by property management companies. 

My first attempt at renting my SFH resulted in bad tenants damaging my home and I had to fire my property management company. 

"Best" means different things to different people and Philly is filled with MANY neighborhoods to choose from.

Hope all is well, I am looking to Take a Job in a different City And Looking At Housing an Came Across a Home that is for sale.

The difference between the two is $4,300 (15%) or $4,000 (20%) but the rent in the area is still around $3,500-$3,700 (so you'll still lose money), but hoping that when interest rates go down and appreciation goes up, you can make money then.

Our company is growing 10-15% a year with out of state and country investors. 

The original lease was provided by the Real Estate company who listed our place for rent and secured my tenants. 

Obviously the security deposit is meant for a different purpose (towards damages and repairs)… but it acts as a goal post for us.  

FYI, because of all the lawsuits he had to rebrand and change his company name from "Fortune Forclosures" and "Flipping on Demand"  to "Empire Real Estate Builders". 

With the right team that has experience in this space, it's more than possible to do, potentially even easier than starting without the right team in your home marketPurchasing on your own with a team in place to help with any needs will allow you to maximize your returns, but to truly have all bases covered with someone to manage the entire process, a turnkey company would be a great place to start.
