I don't believe "waiting it out" is an effective strategy.

I would say that a good strategy would be to first select an area that you actually want to invest in.

Hey everyone,I’m curious to know what strategies have been most effective for you when it comes to finding consistent, high-quality deals.  

I started with the Simple Start plan, but as I learn more about the software, I realize that to effectively classify income and expenses per unit, I need to use Classes and Locations, which are only available on the higher-tier plans.I’ve seen suggestions to use units as customers as a workaround, but I’m curious if anyone else has tried this approach or has recommendations for managing multiple units in QuickBooks with the Simple Start plan.Looking forward to your feedback!

However, the law remains in effect, and the Department of Justice has appealed the decision, adding further uncertainty.Key Considerations for Businesses:1.

So your saying select No Damage Protection and just submit an extra charge when it's warranted? 

I spent a decade in advertising, before founding and running a custom wood shop for another decade, so 'm pretty good at the self-promotion.I agree with you that the more gorilla approach would be most effective and that's actually what i've been doing – calling RE agents in my service area with active listings, introducing myself to property managers and leasing agents...To answer your question, I will have to handle the work myself for 6-12 months to build out the SOPs and field service management systems, but I have a lot of relationships for those looking to "do the work".I'll check out the meet up and would love to grab a cup of coffee, I'll shoot you an email.

The only approach I’ve found effective is offering a deposit alternative, which lowers upfront costs for tenants without devaluing your property.

This was a cost-effective way to meet our requirement of providing just a stove and refrigerator (we don’t include washers or dryers), without breaking the bank further.But here’s the twist: If we were upgrading appliances for a long-term tenant with a stellar payment history, we might invest in brand-new appliances.

I am primarily concerned with completing renovations in a timely and satisfactory condition, so I foresee the selection of GC looming large in my project's success.
