@Philip Jones we've helped our clients do over a hundred.As some of the lenders posting have pointed out, the challenges are:1) Property value and corresponding loan size2) Appraisals have much better comparables than 5 years ago, but may still be an issue.3) Property condition can be an issue via the appraisal4) Ownership seasoning - most lenders looking for 6+ months or incredible documentation for cost of improvements made.5) Most DSR lenders require professional property management.Always try a small local bank or credit union, but most will expect you to transfer your business bank accounts over to them. 

This quotes is only to remediate the mold it does not involve fixing the drywall afterwards.We are trying to get more quotes but unfortunately we live in Stillwater, Ok ( a small town) so most of the professionals have to travel about an hr. to get to us.Attached is the $11K quote – it seems inflated to me.

@Shawn Tuma how professional do you want to present yourself?

That being said, here’s what I would recommend for a thorough DD process:-Build a plan in advance (setup a spreadsheet, meet with the team, etc)-be prepared to take a lot of pictures -document notes with each room (we use notes on Apple and share it with the team)-align the team on standardizing information (example: what does “bad” mean, what does “okay” mean, etc - everyone looks at things differently and you want to make sure the notes are accurate during your debrief)-bring in professionals for things you can see, like sewer lines hope this short list helps! 

I'm happy to help connect you with professional and helpful agents or property managers from Pensacola to Panama City!

last but most importantly, who is the missing professional in your team? 

Of course, have a professional inspection done that enters each unit and do a sewerscope.

If you are building to sell and your profit margins are higher for the larger units, that may be a good argument for building bigger.My rentals are in central and east Phoenix, so we have a lot of young professionals and small families we rent to. 

Readers should seek professional advice.

For assets professionally managed, I just feel like there is a blind spot when it comes to self guided tours.
