Once, somebody older from our family mentioned that the sofa bed wasn't that comfortable if you sit for a long period of time in it.

Timelines, budgets, quality of finishes, they all need to go well for your exit and if your in bed with a GC that only cares about himself then all those things will not go right for you, but he'll still get his money.People really underestimate the following:1) The cash they need to close and carry the project2) How hard it is to have a GC stick to what they promise3) How long it may take to exit through a sale

You'll want to make sure that you use that new property long enough to establish that you had an investment intent and then changed that intent.

Make sure it explicitly explains the process for termination if you are unhappy with their services, but especially if they violate the terms of your agreement.3.

Can I ask how many properties you have and how long it’s taking you?

What are the terms/status on your current lessees?

Lenders want your business, and you can negotiate terms, credits, and even push for a better rate.

I also don't want to focus on one market, and not be able to score the right property for who knows how long, and then end up missing out on other locations, as being a long distance land lord is very popular as well.

Thanks, I'm looking to get into short term or long term rentals for starters.
