According to the managing broker, if I put my head down and worked, I could make $15,000 in my first 12 months, give or take, because of the process of getting my foot in the door with meeting people, advertising, and so forth.

We manage a portfolio over 10 multifamily properties. 

Next we were introduced to the in-house property management team.

We had about 200+ done in the last year for the properties we manage. 

We managed to get seller credit via fixes to the house which is nice.

There have been several high-cost damage issues and one where they are at fault and confessed to, resulting in thousands of dollars, that have put me in the hole to the point I won't make anything off of this year's lease.We live in Colorado and it's made it difficult to manage, even with paid professional services, so we are selling as soon as they can vacate.

I agree and in regards to the perfect fund as someone who manages a debt fund:- Double digit simple interest yield. - This can be had, but understand that increased returns mean greater risk.

Thanks I would look to AirDNA for this - they have long had pretty good (guidance, not perfect) rentalizer solutions for projecting revenue, but have recently added good info on expected expenses and the property managers in the area (for at the very least coming up with expected operating / management costs) etc

Partner 2: equity, cash flow, does all the property management responsibilities and operations.
