Unless you are doing construction and acting as a GC, owning a property management and leasing company as well as owning real estate, maybe then have one.

As soon as you start discussing your business practice and strategies with your customers (tenants), then all bets are off and you run the risk of Fair Housing violations. 

The person will assist in some prop management but largely the GP will oversee/ manage most of the deal (design, permits, construction, leasing).

If you have your down payment ready and are looking into commercial real estate, long-term rentals, short-term rentals, fix and flips, house hacking, BRRRR, or new construction, I'm here to assist you.

New construction or turnkey properties could be viable options for you.

In fact I would bet not even the asset protection services who send you down these rabbit holes can and therein lies the problem...

However, since interest rates jumped up in 2022, new construction starts have dropped a ton in the area, so within the next 1-3 years the amount of new supply coming into the market will drop a ton, and we should see demand outpace supply again and start seeing organic rent growth come back. 2015-2022 you would see 3-10% organic rent growth per year depending on the property and submarket. 

One of those tenants filed a petition pursuant to Oakland’s Rent Adjustment Program complaining about disruptive construction work and hazardous conditions at the premises.

New construction is different, as there's a set budget.

and on my construction they even pay the 7k for the mai apprasials. rates are in the high 6s for development / construction..
