If you are focusing more on turnkey's then I'd suggest partnering with one of the investment companies so you can buy a property that's been completely renovated and that has a resident already in place.

And ONLY put things under contract that match your buyer’s lists buying criteria.

If you ever have the time and feel comfortable sharing your experiences and tips, I'd be happy to buy you a coffee.

You are not going to buy land and put in a mobile home and the lender in 6 months will consider it a single family home.

You can't just go buy commercial RE.

I have a certain ratio per100 headcount (not households, not age, not sex) I use when decidingto buy or build in a town.

Cash flow is definitely the biggest challenge; both in terms of finding properties to buy that cash flow with a loan on them and just company wide given interest rates and labor/material is up and, at least where I'm at in Jackson County, MO, taxes are way up too. 

Should I combine the marketing of my PM company and my buy/sell RE services in one?
