.- We have busy but well paying jobs and don't like to spend time in building sweat equity (BRRR, flip), so will take a slightly low maintenance approach and buy relatively newer properties in B class neighborhoods and use property management for day-to-day operations.Goal:- To get to $10K/month net profits with real-estate (today's currency) in 15 years when we plan to retire.

Can try to reposition to Class B, but neighborhood may impede these efforts.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, but 15-20% should be used to also cover tenant nonpayment, eviction costs & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores of 560-620 (approaching 22% probability of default), many blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 2 years.

Great approach and advice. 

i am confident i can manage the relatively small amount of requests, and have heard some good things about apps and software that are a "one stop shop" for landlords that allow payment, leases, and repair requests. i have one out of state rental property with a plethora of options for handymen and contractors around. i have been paying a property management company 8% plus all of their inflated costs of repairs and fees and with insurance going up it has really opened my eyes to my margins not as healthy as i would like.do you have a certain product you have used or use or would recommend?

However, I wouldn't recommend this approach as it could lead to big trouble and fines (up to $10,000 per non-compliant message). 

At the same time, I believe it’s important that we approach this situation calmly and constructively, as we both share the goal of resolving it efficiently and fairly.I did find your email to be pushing and impatient, which I didn’t appreciate.

@Seth RoseI would look at the approach from a revenue mindset, not a discount mindset (which is where the BRRR concept was born).Firstly, I would like to point out that properties with great cash flow potential and deep equity positions aren't just floating around the MLS.

REITs offer a stock-market-like approach with no management required, while turnkey rental properties provide a fully passive income stream with minimal involvement.

They use more of a flat fee approach.
