The CF platforms must be used to only set up actual REITs and then sell shares with current REIT rules.

Yes I market won all platform , my idea was to have inspection before someone it’s moving in , but it’s seam it’s not working that way the all process  

I understand that "part time" as an agent does not mean "sometimes" or "when I feel like it" if I want to find consistency and growth once starting.

This platform is great for motivated newbies like myself . 

If you consistently analyze properties, it will be much easier to recognize a good deal when it shows up.

You CAN hire a handyman or contractor type to do a lot of the things that Nathan calls out above, yet at the end of the day the trick is how to compel them over and over again to act on your behalf in a way consistent with your best interest.It's a rare situation to find, train, and retain a contractor to do such things and do them well.It's quite common to find a savvy, well-train, systematic Property Management company who can do these things well, and they should add other value to your investment journey, too.

Hey @Mark Davis, if you aren't going to go whole hog into the STR game (AirBNB is a platform, not a house) then doing it for a few months doesn't make sense.

Then doing some anonymous digging I found that for whatever reason, the platforms were pushing new listings up to the top and it didn't matter that they had bad reviews..

There are services which allow them to complete the application themselves online; some services even allow tenants to sign a lease with you online using the same platform (and offer other tools like online rent collection and managing maintenance requests). 

I got an email from Connected Investors soliciting their RE Investor platform.
