@Andrew Steffens sounds like it’s going great so far but I do agree that pricing is key this year.  

Having a contingency fund is key.

Hey Andy one of the keys to profitability as a landlord is quick turn over. if you where renting your unit out for $2,000 a month and waited 3 months to get someone in.

I had one were we did not get to it for a while 6 months or so it was just boarded up.. when i went to sell it wholesalers were going through it said it smelled bad.. one of them finally went down to the basement and found a corpse that had been for quite a while. scared the heck out of him..

I even look at residential properties with key words for potential conversions to multi but those are also hard to come by.

The key is finding out what the seller wants as far as terms but the majority just want a quick close with the highest price. 

For example, we might arrange a shorter penalty period or reduced fees if you expect to exit the property within a specific timeframe.Ultimately, the key is aligning your financing terms with your exit strategy.

Lastly, having a reserve fund is key to offsetting unexpected costs, especially with reduced cash flow from the loan repayments.Hope this helps, and congrats on tackling creative financing!
