I have been doing this for over 10 years SOLO, no va's, no dispo managers, just me!

Reality is that these rates we have had the last couple of years were historically low.  

For information, I'm a year out of college and have a very decent W2 in San Diego.

In our situation, there were other multi family properties available, but they were either much further from the city, in bad neighborhoods, or very old outdated properties. 

Now let say I can negotiate half of the 3M and seller finance the rest at 10 years.

I would say unless you are scaling massively in the first year to two years, the contractor in-house does not seem to be a good option.

That's be increasing a lot the past two years, so I would get a quote to solidify your number.Good Luck!

If you rent out any property for 14 days or less in total for the year, you don’t have to report the income or pay any tax on the income (this is known as the “Augusta Rule,”).

This is seen in Abercrombie and Fitch opening more stores for a consecutive third year in 2024, despite the recent negative sentiment around retail storefronts.PREIT, seeing these trends, has decided to expand the footprint of the Springfield Town Center, by turning unused parking lot space at the mall into a mixed-use community hub.

My goal is to purchase a small multi-family property with an FHA loan that I can self-manage while retaining my day job as a software engineer.I have been causally reading books, listening to podcasts, and self-educating on personal finance and different asset classes for the last 2 years before finally deciding on real estate; but I still feel like I do not know enough to go at it alone.
