You're going to learn a lot just by being around the business.

Which in turn will bring plenty of other investors and general business to the market.

You'll love it here and find many things to keep yourself busy with.

I'm currently going to school, working full time, and have a business going.

Yes, an inspection cost money (at least in my area $500-$600) dollars, but it is just the cost of doing business if you pay for it and decide to back out. 

People do business with people they like, and trust.

We sold at a profit though and the new folks have it as an airbnb with all our stuff in it :)  If we had to pay a manager we would have been losing money.. and to self manage like i said I am just too busy to deal with these there is simply better money for me in other avenues..

My husband and I started bran new business seeking to begin flipping SF properties in the Houston area.

To be honest 15 years into it 3 businesses later and we are still stubbing our toes and refining the way we operate.

Reason being, real estate, transactionally, is a pretty slow business.
