I am in the Indianapolis area which has the same Midwestern feel but much more economic diversity. 

Now we have to submit the plans and apply for a permit and have an inspector come out to review the conversion from 30+ years ago

My concern is that there aren't a ton of outside reviews (i.e. those not on the PropertyOnion website), but I don't think the tool has been available for very long (or at least I haven't come across it until recently), so this would explain a lot. 

Been reading a lot of reviews on some that I've been recommended and so far I'm liking B2B Property Management. 

You'll want to review the borrower's deal and the property with the same type of diligence you'd use if you were doing the deal yourself...because, after all, since it's your money, you basically are doing it yourself.

Checking online reviews and ratings can also provide insight into the reliability and quality of a handyman's work.

or "what key metrics should I be reviewing monthly?" 

Attend seminars or workshops.Build Your Team: Start networking and finding the right professionals to support you.Start Looking: Look for properties that fit your criteria and financial capabilities.Make an Offer: When you find the right property, make a fair offer and negotiate the terms.Close the Deal: Once you've reached an agreement, complete the necessary paperwork and close the deal.Manage Your Investment: Maintain the property, screen tenants, and review your finances regularly.Make sure you have your criteria down, then financing and property selection is Easy!

If you have not taken the time to recently review your estate plan with your respective attorney, there is no time like the present to do so.

Verification of income the property generatesi'm probably missing something with regards to due diligence, but once that is complete and you have an agreement in principle on the seller financing terms have an attorney review before signing on the dottled line
