I have several clients that 'self-manage' or have a full time private manager that has enabled them to offer their manager/cleaner (occasionally the same person or couple) double the hourly cleaning rate (compared to national PM companies) while reducing the booking/cleaning fees for tenants. 

@John Retka what would you be able to offer any broker interested?

Since the start of the year, I've read a handful of BP books:- Rental Property Investing (Brandon Turner)- How to Invest in Real Estate (Brandon Turner/Josh Dorkin)- Investing in Real Estate with No (and Low) Money Down (Brandon Turner)- BRRRR (David Greene)- Multifamily Millionaire Volume 1 (Brandon Turner/Brian Murray)- Start with Strategy (Dave Meyer), currently readingI was thinking of using the equity to BRRRR small multifamily properties and combine some concepts from both the BRRRR and Multifamily Millionaire books (specifically making cash offers via HELOC to secure distressed properties, ideally vacant to set market rents).

If your parents have a long-term mortgage on it already when offer to manage the property while they're in the Floridas for a split of profit?

That would not even be legal.Anyone telling you different or offering you anything that says it is leads of delinquent borrowers is either lying to you, lying to you and making stuff up or, lying to you and violating state and federal statutes.
