There are a lot of opinions from people who have no first-hand experience.

I think the bottom line is there is a lot more commitment that goes into property management than most people think, but if you have the time and energy to commit, go for it.

How much is just fear mongering with the hope of influencing people to steer them to your line of product? 

There is a ton of legislation in the various states coming down to do everything they can to make wholesaling illegal or at least a lot more transparent and only done by people who are licensed and know what they are doing. 

What I have seen people do is note the month/address in the Venmo when the tenant pays.

I'm from Conroe, help people of all sorts in the area analyze properties.

Super cool people and a lot of fun things to do. 

On average, 80 people move into Columbus weekly. 

It is still profitable, but just another consideration for people who get heart eyes when seeing the cash flow but don't realize the maintenance they are getting into. 

People will always tell you their method is better, but eventually it comes down to you to make the decision.
