We can also lend to both individuals and LLCs.I'd be happy to share my experience as both an investor and as a lender.

@Jacob Dalton - I have been a landlord in Chicago for 13 years and as an investor agent I have worked with 200+ investors on the north side of Chicago over the last 10 years. 

We have another park with a free space rent manager and as we have raised the rents he continues to live there for free. 

I've been in the lending industry for 5+ years now both as a loan officer and a broker and a processor, have also done some UW.Over the years, I have seen how lenders and brokers spend marketing dollars. 

As both an investor and a mortgage broker who has personally used both options, I can say there are benefits to each.It ultimately comes down to comparing the two side by side based on your specific situation.

As with many here, I've been using a mix of Cozy (now Apartments.com), Stessa, and a few other custom workflows for turnovers that have worked well in the past, but with the takeover of Cozy by Apartments.com I'm now out shopping for better options for my primary, tenant-facing service. 

At the beginning, I had to use my own money and credit lines and a HELOC.  

And a .81 in Nampa, ID. 

In addition to conventional loans and FHA loans, if either you or your wife are veterans, the VA also has a rehab program.I'd be happy to discuss my rehab experience both as an investor and as a mortgage broker, and at least help you think through your options. 

Secondly, calendar and email functions/apps on computers and smartphones provide great records and a log.
