Will landlords who are barely profitable as it is sell?

Changes some of my answer below, but here would be most of the types of transactions you would have in these accounts and between them.Property transactions would be: all property specific rents and expenses, allocated expense transfer to the master LLC and transfers to master LLC bank account for profit AND/OR property management fee.Master LLC transactions would be: Shared expenses going out, reimbursements/transfers from properties for their allocated share of those expenses coming in, the transfers from your properties deemed as profit AND/OR property management fee and then transfers to your personal accounts deemed as owner distributions.Other transfers that could occur is if the master LLC needs to transfer to the properties for capital expenditures above and beyond the reserves you might leave in their accounts.

Hi @Philip Jones,For the refinance aspect, the main factors will be the FICO Score, cash flow of the property, and as-is value.A Higher FICO will let you get a larger loan size and lower interest rate.Good Cash Flow will ensure that your property will be profitable for you and enable you to get the max loan size that your FICO allows for.The As-is Value will play an important role in making sure that you meet the minimum requirement for a DSCR loan of 100k, but also in making sure that the rehab work that has been done provided significant value add.

If you are building to sell and your profit margins are higher for the larger units, that may be a good argument for building bigger.My rentals are in central and east Phoenix, so we have a lot of young professionals and small families we rent to. 

Marketing and Advertising: A property manager has the resources and knowledge to effectively market and advertise rental properties, attracting prospective tenants and reducing vacancy periods.In summary, hiring a property manager can streamline operations, enhance profitability, and provide peace of mind for you, allowing you to enjoy your investments rather than being bogged down by day-to-day management tasks.A property manager will give you more time to expand your investment portfolio. 

I grew up with a realtor for a mother, but she’s not too well informed on new construction.As it stands today, I have roughly 70k liquid and looking to invest in building a new construction home for profit.

You also must allocate all expenses based on the proportion of time spent, allocating the expenses between your personal deductions and the rental property profit and loss

Everyone would like to own class A property, however, the problem is that most of those places are NOT profitable for renting.

You're in business to make a reasonable profit without exposing yourself to liability.

I’m curious about everyone’s thoughts on the pros and cons of mid-term rentals versus short-term rentals. profit margin on STR is getting thinner, and I’m interested in exploring other strategies.
