People don’t want to work them, and customers would rather order through a device and get consistent results. 

It’s easy to understand the benefits each of these can offer so take advantage of your experience/connections in these areas to lead to investing success.Demographic TrendsSince you’ll likely be looking to invest in assets that are fully rented with consistently growing rental prices, you’ll want the demographics to support those goals as well.

Should I wait until I make a consistent salary starting in 2020 and can save more money for this, or is there a feasible and sensible way that I can start sooner?

This feels consistent with everything I've been hearing lately. 

The numbers work because I put 5% down, but I do not have the cash to be consistently putting 20% down in my area. 

Ive invested in many regions of the US, fired many PMs, and Metroplex Homes were consistently one of the most dependable.

A $250k home in California (if you can find one...and doghouses don't count), would likely be a Class C property...but in some markets in the Buffalo area, it can buy you a Class B property...and in Redford, MI it can buy you a Class A property.The Class C in CA might not be a positive CF property, the Buffalo property might CF around $300/month...and the Redford Property might CF around $500 or more.The specific market (micro-market) dictates the CF...and there is no consistent direct correlation to the cost of the property,...maybe. 

A team would consist of a Realtor, Property Manager, CPA, Attorney and Contractor.Fourth, start taking action!!!
