We use and are happy with Avail as a lease management platform for when we get a FF renter, but it doesn't play well with the OTA booking platforms (which are becoming greater sources of residents for us).

I can justify any price (and some high fee syndicators are still doing so), if I just play with assumptions, prepay and buy down my interest rate, and hope that sub-5% cap rates will be returning in the next few years.But if you know your market and market cycle, have an idea where interest rates may be going (this is an educated guess for all of us), and then have your assumptions, you can certainly have the conversations you reference with brokers and see what their take is on pricing and if it is worth writing.Finally, I have said this before and will continue to say it, whether we are talking single family homes or 400 unit apartment complexes, off-market purchases do not make something a deal.

Just a heads-up—bonus depreciation can be claimed up to 60% for 2024, and it will drop down to 40% in 2025, so that’s something to keep in mind as you evaluate your options.I’m not endorsing any particular company, and I don’t receive referral fees for recommending the one I used.
