I worked for a property management company that requires all potential tenants to check into the main office prior to showing as a means to provide a safe showing for the employees.

HI Melissa-  I would recommend you contact a few property managers in Bluffton SC to get some recommendation. 

Specifically, I’d love to hear about best practices for managing shared spaces, screening tenants, and setting up house rules.Additionally, I plan to split the utilities among the tenants—any advice on how to handle this efficiently would be greatly appreciated!

And the NNN leaves you only managing a long term lease rather than managing a property.And given your expertise, there's nothing wrong with a transition from farmer to landlord of the farmer. 

I am planning to get into the TN real estate market as my first investment and am looking for some information.In particular: Areas to steer clear of, property management fees, typical cosmetic rehab costs, etc.My strategy is to put large down payments on 2 properties (relative to housing prices) to help pay for my living in NY while still gaining appreciation in a growing real estate market.

Since your condo prohibits LLC ownership, you can manage rent and expenses through the LLC while keeping the property in your name.

Hi Kyle, I would recommend chatting with a property manager in the specific city of Ohio you're looking to buy in.

Since in the sponsor - investor platform the investor is giving up decision making to the sponsor, there needs to be a legal structure offering the investor recourse should the sponsor not act in the investors best interest, or prove incompetent to manage the enterprise.3.

Is in there, but a great thing you can do now is get your "core 4" figured out - agent/lender/manager/contractor - obviously you can adjust this and do one of the pieces yourself (self-manage for example) or don't need a contractor if you do only turnkey etc but getting this nailed down early is key

@Devan Praska I do not have a manual for my tenants but have created a manual for each of my properties in the event that something might happen to me and someone else would have to take over the management of them.
