A management company can be operationally perfect, but if they can't attract new tenants do those skills even matter?

We want to make sure we are attracting strong investors in addition to those looking at it as a primary residence.

I have multi family clients in every county from central jersey to north jersey,  I will say from ROI to laws there are more attractive markets. 

Places like this are going to be hard to buy in over the next 5 years due to the attractive sale prices and rents to match.The market is also healthy when it comes to variety on property type from Condo's, Single Family and Multifamily 2-4 units.

You will not attract a lot of homesteaders with a parcel that small.

Also consider Investor Attraction Academy.

That combo makes it attractive for both STR and LTR investors.

The clearer your plan, the easier it is to attract the right partner.I work with investors here in Hawaii, and I’ve seen that once you frame the opportunity properly, it’s less about “finding money” and more about connecting with people who already want a foothold in the islands.
