@Daniel Curtin I don't have any experience with them but I've heard positive and negative comments (as you will from any company providing a service) from some of my clients who have worked with them. From my understanding the biggest concern is they don't actually buy the home, renovate it and sell it to the investor. It's more so they find a company who has flipped a home and match that company with a buyer they have created then the refer that buyer to a property management company as well. They are more of a referral source so naturally they can't control some of the things that occur after the transaction. 

There are several companies out there who do own the entire process from start to finish therefore the interest's will have to be mutually aligned. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Best of luck investing!

@Julio Medina welcome to the forums and congrats on the first post! I work with hundreds of investors that are in a similar situation as yourself. They invest passively here in the southern/middle part of the country where price points are much easier and the laws are landlord friendly. 

Feel free to reach out if any questions arise. Best of luck investing!

@Davarious Thompson welcome to the forums and congrats on the first post! House hacking is a great first step to becoming a real estate investor, that's how I started and now I own 6 rentals. 

I'd be happy to share my experience with you. Just sent you a pm

@Summit Aryal you're sitting at a great spot because you have options. If you have the time and don't mind spending the effort then BRRR or fix and flips would be the way to go. Some of the specific finishes may vary depending on which route you go but the underwriting will be about the same so if it was executed property you could go with either option.

If you want to go the passive route because you don't have the time or want to spend the effort then long term rentals isn't a bad play either. I work with hundreds of investors who prefer this route because they choose to be experts in their own field and don't want to learn a new one, in real estate. 

You're in a great market to be investing in, especially if you aren't worried about cash flow. The real money is made through the appreciation. Best of luck on the journey, let us know how it goes!
