Because the owners of Licensing Experts pay ALL CASH, the closing usually occurs 3-6 weeks, which is very fast compared to traditionally financed commercial deals I've seen on Bigger Pockets.The whole thing hinges on their very clever technique of getting existing commercial retail tenants engaged, willing to move into their newly acquired properties who are coming up for a lease renewal or lease expiration, rather than marketing for new commercial tenants - which would take way too long.Licensing Experts is somewhat of a "front" for their Mentorship Platform, as they evidently have many of their own separate entities for which they use to actually purchase and close on their commercial properties assigned by their mentees. 

@Remington Lyman thanks for the suggestion!

I highly suggest you use our marketplaces to find trusted, investor-friendly team members: Tax Pro finder: https://www.biggerpockets.com/business/finder/tax-and-financ...Lender finder: https://www.biggerpockets.com/business/finder/lendersProperty manager finder (if you go that route and don't self manage): https://www.biggerpockets.com/business/finder/property-manag...

I'm curious to know how often property managers actively suggest value-add activities for properties (ie, building an ADU, remodeling, buy-fix-hold opportunities etc etc). 

Any suggestions?  

So that’s what I’ll do as you suggested.

@Dominic Holt , I am happy to review your scenario and suggest changes that could improve your property.

Hi Kylie,I definitely know that finding the right business bank account can be challenging, but here are a few suggestions based on your what you've told us:For Wire Transfers: Consider Mercury Bank or Novo.

Any recommendations or suggestions on how to navigate this?

Can I beat inflation.Paying off a mortgage does none of those things.I'd suggest if you are able to pay off a mortgage, you instead use it to buy another "cash flowing" property.
