Building relationships with them early is key.For tenant communication and rent collection, tools like Buildium or Avail can make life easier.

I am still pretty new to the area but I am ready to jump in and start investing in multi-families in the Albany and surrounding areas.  Since this is something that is best done with a team of experts that know a lot ...

We manage a bunch of ADU’s and higher density new builds for investors in Raleigh and Durham.

I just want some outside eyes to help me understand if this deal is what I should expect to find as I build my portfolio.I plan to buy and hold long term.

It will be great to build out community.

@Tom Dieringer After purchasing my first property in 2024, I acquired most of my short-term rental (STR) knowledge from The Short Term Shop, which included maintaining respectful communication with guests, keeping calendar availability up-to-date, and ensuring high-quality listings.When I initially began May of 2024, I opted to list my property exclusively on a single Online Travel Agency (OTA) - Vrbo.

The sale price will most likely be around $500,000 and the mortgage is currently about $200,000.I plan on using the profits (let’s just say $300,000) to build an ADU on property that my family owns in Central Oregon.

Yes, they do nickel and dime some but the are competent and communicative.

The lenders were very good and communicating at first, but as we got close to closing, we could not reach a single person in the company during business hours.

We've used Reg D 506(b) for our syndications and ONLY communicate with investors that have a prior relationship with us.There are two illegal activities that I see all the time.
