Manager does drug testing random.

No, don't "just start" by going on Zillow and spending tens of thousands of dollars to buy a random property.  

Obvious next step.Outcome: Higher opt-in rates and fewer drop-offs.Step 4: Connect the follow-up – Deliver the magnet by email and kick off a short nurture.Outcome: Fast replies, booked calls, and warmer conversations.Step 5: Promote it everywhere – Pin it to your profiles, run a small ad, add a QR code to mailers, and link it from blog posts.Outcome: Consistent daily signups instead of random spikes.Sample Templates or ScenariosCampaign outline: “Thinking of Selling in [ZIP]”Audience: Owners in 66208 who plan to list in 3–6 monthsLead magnet: 7-page “Pricing and Prep Playbook for 66208”Landing page: Headline, 3 bullets, short form, privacy notePromotion: Two feed posts, one email to SOI, $10/day zip-code ad, QR on postcardFollow-up: 5-email series with tips, then invite to a short pricing consultEmail sequence (5 messages, plain text)Delivery: Link to the guide and one tip they can use todayStory: A quick win from a recent sale in their areaEducation: Common pricing mistake and how to avoid itSoft proof: Short review from a local clientNext step: Offer a quick call or home value reviewChecklist: “Weekend Prep for Show-Ready Photos”Clear counters and floorsLight bulbs matched and workingFresh towels and neutral linensCurb touch-ups and swept walkwaysScent neutral, windows cleanedInvestor scenario: “2-Unit Analyzer”Magnet: Google Sheet that calculates taxes, insurance, rent, vacancy, and cash-on-cashNurture: Three short emails on screening, maintenance, and lending contactsClose: Invitation to get on a weekly deals listMistakes to AvoidToo generic – “Ultimate home guide” sounds nice and converts poorlyToo hard to consume – Keep it short, skimmable, and useful on a phoneNo follow-up – If delivery is the end, the lead goes coldWeak headline – Lead with the outcome and the audienceAsking for too much – Start with name and email; add phone laterSet and forget – Update quarterly so advice and stats stay currentThe Bottom LineLead magnets work because they flip the script.

if you have limited capital, should you buy a random property thousands of miles away, just because you found BP and now have to do a deal? 

But at the same time, being “on call” or chasing trades can be a headache.What if I were to create a service that ONLY handled landlord tasks — not rent collection, not tenant screening, not managing the whole property — just the annoying one-off things like:Coordinating with a plumber/electrician when something breaks.Doing move-in/move-out inspections with photos/video to document condition.Overseeing a turnover (cleaning, patch/paint, locks).Handling those random city compliance to-dos (smoke detectors, inspections).Basically: you keep control of your property and tenants, but you can call someone local to be your “boots on the ground” when you don’t want to drive across town or deal with contractors.My questions for you:If something like this existed in your city/town, would you use it?

So they ended up picking some random place in the middle as the venue. 

It has two apartments that generate $28K a year and a basement where I have heated storage for cars and motorcycles that generates another  $12K.After speaking with a few banks I have been able to acquire some financing.   

I would try an ozone generator. 

I’m licensed in over 25 states and have spent the last few months studying multifamily and creative finance strategies with the goal of building a portfolio that generates long-term cash flow and stability.I’m extremely motivated to start closing deals now — ideally multifamily or self-storage, though I’m also open to triple net opportunities down the line.

But I am a random internet man, so hopefully you have a good grasp on your goals and can decide based on that and not random internet people.Good luck!
