I would never advise my customer to take a 5 YPPP considering we are have been moving into a downward trending rate market since 2024. 3 Year Prepay Max but if you plan on doing renovations or taking cash out on the ARV then a 1-2 YPPP would be Max.I would also advise buying the rate down before you decide to take a 5 YPPP using seller credit, equity or closing funds.

or even better is there some tricks to set up quickbook with one account but handling all these companies?

I'll give you some numbers for the MTRs we manage in Los Angeles.1-2 bedroom MTRs stays are 1-3 months3+ bedroom MTRs stays are 3-6 months, but often start less than 3 months and extend their stayMTR marketing falls in 2 buckets.

.- We used to buy locks at Home Depot and just swap handsets, but now use a locksmith for same cost.2) Get rid of handset locks (use passage knobs) and only use deadbolts.- Two locks on a door really don't provide any additional security.- Cheaper as only have to rekey/replace deadbolts.- Tenants can't lock keys in their home.3) Our locksmith created a Master Key system with 10 key option.- One master key opens every door- We go 3 levels under our master, so we can submaster 2-4 unit houses and apartment buildings- Don't need a costly and difficult to secure & track keybox.
