I’d be glad to put you in touch - I’m sure you are going to have more help as you grow.

I would recommend stay local, see it, touch it, and it will eventually grow on you.  

City has never been able to touch it yet.

From locating the best areas/neighborhoods, finding great deals, applying for a mortgage, finding great tenants, and managing your properties like a business, Brandon touches on about everything new investors could want when beginning their real estate education. 

Once they are out, and all of their stuff is out (you should look everywhere inside the house to check), I thinkit's legal for you to change the locks on your own.If it were me, I'd spend the weekend trying to get in touch with the tenants, driving by the place a few times, and researching what it takes to file an eviction. 

@Kyle HowellYou might want to get in touch with Sean Cole (https://www.biggerpockets.com/users/sean_cole).   

I'd recommend touching base with local investors and ask them what return they want.

Like @Thomas S. said, truly passive investing (the kind where you don't touch think or even dream about your investments) can't happen. 

Some carpet cleaning and paint touch up and Im good to go.

I'll definitely keep in touch with you-be interested to see how things work over the next few months.
