If you dont have time to do it yourself, you can usually rent the equipment and hire an operator hourly for less than what a full service company will charge you.

Other KPIs and considerations you should evaluate when talking to any lender who offered private placement of loans/notes are historic default rate, how quickly they can place your funds (do you get preference over their income funds, for example), average interest rate - borrower note rate and what is passed through to you, are loans serviced by a 3rd party servicer or in house.

Naturally, I assumed REI’s "white-glove" service included a strong legal team to handle these situations efficiently.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – and they often select the first PMC they call!

If you asked me to run a ton of properties, I would still be happy to do it, I may just charge a service fee at some point.

Like you said, I do believe you'll see more firms with "all services under one roof" moving forward. 

A good attorney, RMLO, and servicing company play a big part of this. .
