When the majority property owners sit and run the board, things are sketchy, which I found out six months in. 

You are not running a charity here, it's a business.

It is worth it in the long run!

Feel free to reach out if you have any more questions while getting up and running. 

Be careful of responses to your posts as 1) Most responders aren't licensed experts 2) many of them will share what has worked for them, which may or may not be legal or the "best" way or the way that will work for you.We manage almost 700 doors in Detroit and the tri-county area, so bounce stuff off us as needed:)

Run the numbers first.

I have recently been running into the issue of having investors go out to a deal with interest and then talking themselves out of the deal on the way home.If you have run into this issue before as well and have overcome it, what are some good strategies to secure the deal before leaving the driveway? 

But I'm not limiting myself to section 8 (for lots of reasons).I have 12-doors in Detroit and stay extremely active there outside of my own stuff.

It's simply people seeing the RTP, low barrier to entry and running it up.

In the long run I'd like to do the management myself, but being my first go-around I have decided to go with a Property Manager.
