My view is that I can get a higher return by parking that cash in real estate as opposed to having some fund manager get me marginal returns on my savings.Appreciate any thoughts or comments.

Point being - if I'm renting your house.

Here are some key recommendations to consider:1.Focus on Emerging Neighborhoods:Look for emerging neighborhoods in Orange County where property prices are still reasonable but expected to appreciate.2.Niche Markets:Consider niche markets like student housing or senior living, which can offer stable rental income.3.BRRRR Strategy:Use the BRRRR method (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat) to increase your property’s value and refinance to reinvest.4.Partnerships:Form partnerships with other investors to pool resources and share risks.

Hi, I have started flipping houses not long ago but I think the hardest part for me is finding buyers. 

If he files a transfer deed to the Land Trust or if he "sells it" then property taxes increase, the change in hazard insurance becomes a tangle.I wouldn't give authority to a bank person to collect rents, file evictions, deal with repairs... there are set up costs and on-going management costs.

Generally adding an ADU isn't worth it but the exception would be in high-density areas with housing crises'.

(I also do all of the advertising, tours/viewings, communications resulting from the advertising, but once all of the rooms are rented, and I am purely managing, how are property managing hours discerned, I suppose that's my question here.)

I'd love to connect with anyone who is interested in flipping houses in the north Atlanta metro area. 

I manage large commercial and industrial properties now for my employer, I am a facilities manager for a large utility company in my area.  

. - Older housing stock in some areas may require more upkeep. - Strict local regulations can also sometimes increase compliance-related maintenance costsCost-saving strategies I've seen help:- Preventative maintenance programs can help reduce overall costs obviously - Some investors report success with in-house maintenance teams for larger portfolios- Energy-efficient upgrades can help reduce utility costs in the long runYour specific costs will depend on factors like the age and condition of your properties, your management style, and the specific neighborhoods you're invested in, but hope this helps!
