Thanks for the info in your post, but if someone has just 1-4 properties and they generate cash flow after expenses of only $500 or so/month, that is $24k/year in cash flow.

I've been passionate about real estate investing for about a year now, and I'm particularly passionate about property management.

My brother and I want to get into real estate investing for passive income, and we’re thinking about starting off with a duplex in a year or two after saving some money, that we can live in and rent other unit(s). 

In a few years we'll likely expand to more areas.  

I'm Lindsay Conley from Smyrna Delaware, passionate about real estate investing for 10 years.

For example, if an owner is in red but the property has old and drafty windows, and tenants are complaining, what would you do?

So, I wanted to get your advice on how should I proceed based on my goals.I'm pretty much starting out in the REI industry but have been educating myself for the past 3 years, listening to podcasts, masterminds, meetups, etc...

I had worked Retail Management for 20+ years so the working for yourself thing was a challenge (LOL) to say the least. 

I built that one a few years back it will be similar only the exit is going to be 850 to 900k this time around.. this area does not have the heavy influence of the BAR like south of Broad  and other areas..

ANy new info that you can submit after 3 years?
