From there, I'd recommend reaching out to some of the smaller property management companies in your area.

I manage over 100 STR and MTR properties (STR is not allowed currently for ADU's, but MTR is, and great way to maximize the income, unless you're using it for family or office purposes.)I recently constructed an ADU in the backyard of a property within the city from a detached garage.

Are you looking to actively be involved in the operation and management of the investment?

Real estate can be an excellent investment, but ensuring you can comfortably manage the payments is vital, even if you encounter negative cash flow periods.

If you structure the deal where you are a non-managing member or limited partner with no say in operations, you will be deemed passive and your income will be passive income.

The Fund Manager, well, there a fund manager.

I would add that you want to get contact info of there previous landlords or property managers if they have any.

That might give you some experience running a house, hearing what people are willing to pay for rent, management issues and all the other things involved. 

Hi all- I’m in a unique / fortunate situation where I’ve found some older homeowners looking to remove the burden of managing a rental property that are willing to seller finance their property to me at $0 down and 1% interest on a 30-year note, no balloon. 

You should seriously consider hiring a professional to manage your property.
