Only buy something that makes sense to own.  

I've heard about turnkey companies (properties that a company owns, is already rented, and ready to sell with tenants in it) but am not familiar with any names of companies.

As well as guest room in the main house.These properties are all personally owned and obviously highly leveraged.

You can also call your property manager if you use a professional management company to see if their portfolio has anyone that recently purchased or currently owns properties in the area that are thinking about selling (just to help you rationalize your value better).

Ohio seems landlord friendly, reasonably stable blue-collar economy (I currently own rentals in WY and I'm looking for a new location that also targets 1 bed / 1 bath multifamilies).

i want to keep the group small. not like industry scale crowdfunding.if I can find a property which has okay cashflow (which is hard anyways). and can collect around 10/20 people who wants to invest some cash each.I build a company to own the property and give each person a share. and give yearly dividend to each, until sold.

Set up your own project management tool on your phone and start tracking every grain of information.

Hello everyone,Say I own a single family home that I rent out.

Do we buy a cash flowing property maybe somewhere else entirely to just start the process of investing in real estate, or do we just buy my mom a place and pay that mortgage down as quickly as we can since our own primary is at a very low interest rate here in CA.

We own and manage 3 ABNBs in Tampa and have not taken a formal course.
