I just get the impression that it isn't really worth their time and they wont manage nearly as well as you would but I could be wrong and I'm sure there's a 1/1000 pms who treat the management professionally regardless of the number of units.  

Hi all, If you use Avail currently or in the past, could you please provide feedback as I'm thinking about using them for tenant screening, lease agreements and rent collection.  

@Kang-Li ChengI cannot comment on this specific company but we buy loans from similar companies (both performing and non performing) and I Can say the consistent component to these companies is they are horrible at underwriting and write loans to collect the points / fees but many of the loans we see we cannot believe they gave that person a loan.I am curious what types of returns they targeted as the invest in one asset model to me is very risky.

My plan, after I accumulate enough property, is to refinance certain properties each year and collect the tax free "income" from that property and enjoy life. 

I'm ALWAYS IMPRESSED with the creative investing you figure out with your clients @Henry Lazerow!

Locally, I know an investor that runs a crazy profitable trailer park where he is probably pulling in a 20%+ annual return on his investment - but he has to self-manage because no one will touch it, collects rent and deals with evictions armed, and has several "overseers" living for free on site to make sure no one burns the park down.

It was a duplex and they were collecting the rent but not paying the mortgage.

Columbus OH for example is a popular choice, with the city experiencing impressive property appreciation surpassing the national average.
