I think for my purposes though, I'd prefer to have the tenant as helpful as possible with finding a replacement, so that I don't have to constantly be running and doing showings, etc.

(Listings from agents preferred in your opinion?)

I prefer to buy and maybe do some minor rehab or none if possible.

Our goal for 2022 is to move into the MFH space (preferably a 4 unit or more), but need some ideas for funding, or rather the "push" to make us take the leap as I know there are a few options available to us.

So the way that I see it is that I prefer to pay someone $200-$500 to validate my price hypothesis. * I'm not asking for a specific person, as I know this is not allowed by the forum's rules.

Hello Daeun,Couple of options available and it comes down to what you prefer and what fits your situation.

I feel a lot of people that fall into buckets 2 & 3 would prefer an all-inclusive payment and have everything taken care of (lawn care, snow removal, utilities, etc.). 

We also have food and very knowledgeable presenters.

Many investors prefer real estate due to high returns compared to other investments.

So I think I would prefer to start investing in just 1 or 2 properties in metro areas with higher appreciation potential.
