That’s why SFR is a better choice although SFR has less cash flow. 

Purchase price: $93,000 This was my first single family home purchase and I bought it with a 0% down military choice loan (different than VA loan).

And the turnkey provider is giving me a choice of 3, not forcing me to use just 1 lender (presumably their brother-in-law.)Thoughts? 

If you wish for your ideas to be heard, a Planning Commission meeting is not the best choice.

And since then, we've had our bathtub plumbing leak into the floor below, we've had to replace the toilet because water was coming up after flushing, and now we're having kitchen plumbing issues as well.I don't know if it's just the area, or if i'm just making bad choices when i review these properties. but after 2 years, we haven't made any money since we're spending significantly more than the rent brings in to fix all these problems.

If you are just buying a few, than a real estate agent might be a good choice.

Sad, but I don't have other choices if anything HVAC will just be stolen or ripped apart for 5 f**king dollars in scrap copper anyway.

Calculate what your ROI is on each of your choices, and then make a decision.Yeah I know some of these choices are hard to calculate ROI on. 

I first thought a SDIRA was the correct choice, but the more I read about them, the more restrictive they seem. 

You have choices and the best one is to buy.That's my 2 cents.
