I am rethinking maybe transactional funding might not be as good compared to having cash to buy the house outright and not restricted for wholesaling purposes either.

I'd talk to a local business broker to compare other shops for sale.  

Only comparing the potential rent to offset the mortgage will not result in a good outcome for you.

Hope this helps awser your question.It took me a number of years to get here so it is not all that glamorous compared to some of the other REI players highlighted story.

Not a whole lot going on here comparatively, but like anywhere else, there is still potential.

Understand the fees involved and calculate the total cost for an entire year of management so you can compare the different managers.

IE west coast high priced compared to rust belt areas were homes are rentals are priced like used vehicles.. but even those low value assets will have running costs that will exceed cash flow many times..  

All depend what is the purpose of cashing out from current properties.

BUT if it does well you will most likely make much more money in the next 10 years compared to RE It would take less money but would take a huge amount of time and additional risk

However, I am a member of several different companies organized as Limited Liability Companies (LLCs) where members invest in a project (Single Purpose Entity) or projects (like a real estate LTH company) jointly, similar to (but different than) what you may see in a syndication or investment club investment.
