I too am a Marine veteran and real estate investor.

There is some industry in Albany, namely, Miller Brewing, Proctor & Gamble, and a small Marine base.

Hey @Erin Babnik, I agree with the Excel recommendation.I love to suggest QuickBooks Online for bookkeeping for REIs (that's what all of our Clients are on) but if you only have 1 property and are looking to keep this as simple as possible the clear winner is Excel.Best of luck!

Sounds like you got a winner of a deal there, and all things considered a great interest rate before they shot up in 2022!

Purchase price: $55,000 Cash invested: $100,000 Sale price: $820,000 Fix & Flip in prime marine park in Brooklyn, one family 3bd duplex just off the park. got this deal as REO, since houses in this area are selling as is, we did just minor renovation.

But even beyond that, the process in which the auction is conducted and how a "winner" is determined will often complicated and different from state to state.

Sounds like you picked a winner of a company to work with...If there isn't any paperwork allowing the PM to act on your behalf then the lease is not executed and therefore null and void.

It is one of the markets I have been checking out lately to see if any winners come to my deal desk. 

I would like to possibly purchase a multiplex 2-4 units that is a proven winner when comparing costs to return. would this be ideal?

They said it's because I did not follow the rules for marinating operation and deposits accounts at the bank.
