Absolutely, Melinda trust and speed set the pace, but communication and clarity keep the deal together.

Travelers on Furnished Finder and Zillow especially tend to reach out weeks before they’re ready to commit.That said, there are a few small tweaks that can help you convert faster:Add move-in clarity right in your title and first sentence.

Due to my time limitations, I went with LO mentally.

Here’s the messages I sent him on instagram, hoping to gain some clarity.

I’d love to hear your experiences and lessons learned — it’ll help me take action with more clarity and confidence.Thanks in advance,Christopher Welcome to the site.

That long-term mindset and clarity around your goals will serve you well in this journey.I own a property management company based out of Kokomo, Indiana — about an hour north of Indy — and we manage doors throughout Indianapolis and the surrounding areas (Fishers, Noblesville, Carmel).

heheI miss the Midwest's "simple" mentality of my common folks.Even tho, as you mentioned the weather can get brutal.It's always a tough gig to do deals from afar unless buying turnkey.Even then, turnkey is not worth it unless the portfolio is big.As soon as you can, move to the market you want to invest in and with time you might become "institutionalized" to it just like I did with Toledo hahaI put Ohio Cashflow on the back burner 3 years ago as I got burnt out on working with investors lolWe only sell from time to time to our existing book of business and if I like the specific investor hahaI list most deals on the MLS and once sold, I clean my hands.No need to babysit the never satisfied and disgruntled landlords expecting retirement from 1 turnkey property...Unfortunately, it is what it is and I ate $#@% for many years before I said enough is enough heheOz Realty has been the bread and butter for us and our main focus since we shifted focus.Crazy that I'm even typing this as I hated PM for many years and considered it just as the "necessary evil" in order to offer a turnkey product.Now, if I could turn back time, I'd never do turnkey and would only do PM hehe.Everything happens for a reason mate.Granted, it took 7+ years to create a lean and efficient PM machine heheI'm in Toledo every month for 7-10 days so feel free to hit me up whenever you are in town.All the best mate 🙏 @Engelo Rumora , haha, a new book would be valid for sure, as things do change fast in this world, looking forward to it. 

Make sure whoever’s using their FHA loan will actually live in the property for at least a year that’s one of the key requirements.Working with family can be awesome, but clarity is everything.

Especially the first time something bad happens (and something bad will happen) such as an eviction, slap leak, collapsed sewer run, new roof, etc it could be challenging to see the positive of having a cash negative rental.Make sure you are mentally prepared to supplement this property for potentially years through some difficult events.good luck
