House hacking will also give you some personal "property management" experience.

Very satisfied customer. 

Welcome welcome, I recommend joining up with some local rest estate groups to network with in person and Facebook groups for investors, buy/sell, contractors, etc. to just be in the mix and see who is out there making deals and opportunities.

Merely my personal opinion, no.

As that will at least help folks that you reach out to know that you are a real person, with a picture and professional bio.

This question has at least 2 major facets:   1) you personally own the property (or maybe through an LLC)  and 2)  Your 401k owns the property being rented.   

I don't know your personal situation, goals and motivation. 

The bank/lender who is selling wants the proof of funds as a bank statement with the exact name of the person on the contract.

Call the business phone number and ask to speak with the person rather than calling the number the applicant listed.- Minimum credit score of 650.- Rental History: screen for tenants who have a track record of owning or leasing property.

I am also getting leads where the person is saying they prefer to pay by card.
