Forget what your "goals" are, it's all about the decisions you make and systems you have in place.

Looking for someone to review HVAC systems in a multi-family property - specifically duct work design.  

All major systems have been well maintained. 

As for ease of switching over, it really all depends on how organized your current data and business systems and processes are.

They know the tenant base, median rents of different areas, how much to increase rent each year, ranges of repair costs (ex: tenant calls and says AC isn't working, no hot water, faucet is leaking, the HVAC system goes out).

How would you suggest I handle an expense like let's say new HVAC system is needed a month or so after we close the deal on the portfolio?

@Allen Moore In New York City, section 8 is awful, the tenants play the system masterfully and the courts are in bed with the city.

That layout is fairly final.Luckily not in a hurry and just work the system and not get in a hurry.

The system I use has different catagories.

It also says:"MAINTENANCE: It is expected that major systems in and around the property will breakdown from time to time such as washer, dryer, refrigerator, etc.
