However, going along with all the other issues I mentioned above if I were to pass along to an independant property management company, I've got a few banks that really trust me and will lend me many millions as long as I maintain that trust - a trust that is somewhat dependant on me keeping property management in house.

@Jordan Lucas Hi jordan, yes you can be a real estate at age 18 but i suggest you maintain a decent/well paying full timeish job (30-40 hrs) until youre up off your feet as there are a lot of expenses to being an agent and you dont always have clients immediately.

@Alexander Felice, I buy & maintain a portfolio of rentals.

My partner and I are in the process of acquiring a not so well maintained ( Pop had it for 20+ yrs) in a small town.

I think good communication is the number one thing to remember - it is important and professional to maintain relationships with owners and tenants with good and constant communication.

So things that are showstoppers for me will be fine for other people.The 2 principals of DiversyFund Inc also ran a previous real-esate investment firm from DiversyFund.com called CCFG dba ("doing business as") DiversyFund.Per the Better Business Bureau on CCFG dba DiversyFund in 2017: "The company stands accused of secret profit or undisclosed compensation, use of false or Fictitious Business Names, failing to submit independent audit report, failing to file with the BRE the Quarterly Threshold Reports, failing to supervise the real estate activities of the company, inaccurate and incomplete trust fund records, inaccurate and incomplete recording of separate record for each beneficiary or transaction, and failing to maintain the monthly reconciliation of all the separate records or transactions to the balance of the record of all trust funds received and disbursed."

If they maintain the property and enforce the rules, it protects the value. if they don't, the value can drop dramatically.

Just FYI, Palmyra borough maintains the sewer/trash of $50/mo which get billed to the actual owner only, whereas gas/water/electric are set up in tenants name.  

I'm definitely aware of the hard money options, but the interest rate would be far too much to maintain for an owner occupied property.
