I've already spoken with a property manager and agents, but I'd like to hear firsthand experiences from other new investors in the Fort Wayne market, especially within the first year or two of their initial investment.

My properties are in three different states and I use local property managers for full-service management. 

My wife is actually an account exec for a Development Lender up to $20M and my company lends up to $3M.

It's good to have developers who have experience with container building but not a hard requirement since the installation isn't too complicated and would get help from the factory who make those container homes as well.I've been working with container manufacturing company who build 90% of the unit (prefab) from Vietnam and ship to the US.

And the real estate is it's own holding company. 

This is a direct conversation from my email about this exactly (names and companies withheld of course):Me: This is Under contract-accepting backup offers on the MLS so does not make sense it is here also (in a wholesale email).Them: We have it under contract.Me: Yeah but why would anyone buy something from you that was on the MLS and they could have bought direct?

I sincerely enjoy giving property management and real estate information.

Our efficient project management ensured the renovations were completed on time and within budget.

I've owned, operated, managed and sold all types of BnB's throughout CA & OR the past decade.

I did not want to manage the house from a distance and had plans to grow a portfolio in TX.
