"He currently owns 28 units in 15 buildings ..." "...He manages these properties himself..."Seriously? Scott must have a lot of free time. I own 7 rentals and it's a lot of work at times... I tried doing it on my own but gave up... Get a decent property manager and just pony up 5-9% for the benefits is my best advice.-Jason in Vegas A very interesting article until I read… “He currently owns 28 units in 15 buildings …” “…He manages these properties himself…”

It's just money" That can be hard to say, but it's no joke...whether it be $100 or $100,000...you'll be happier if you gave it a shot and lost, than if you never tried. “Best advice for beginners…”

The Realtor should keep a copy of the keys in his or her office somewhere. Or at least most do around here.
