That's when my bright thought hit me: why not educate and collaborate with these aspiring investors to create a win-win situation?

     For those that are interested in the rent by room model you may have heard the news. 

What is the appeal of this business model? 

@Rose LaurentThere are a number of business models what can work in Albany.

I’m a aspiring investor. 

Please note, none of us have any idea what is going to happen but every investor should look at certain scenarios to see how that would impact their portfolio. easy, every smart guy moving from equity investment to debt investment like that's what happened these days but it's dangerous too when everyone is chasing "Chris investment model" LOLwith today's interest, only Nvidia and some tech can survive, Chris, most business in America is started dying anyway....

They monitor the meters remotely, and send you and the resident a statement on the 1st of each month with the resident’s W/S/T usage and charges for the previous month.I use their Model TSN1 - PVC Meter which currently costs $95 each.Each building also needs at least one router which currently costs $195.If you have your meters in a centralized location, you only need one router but if the meters are scattered throughout the building, you may need multiple .There’s a monthly $6 fee per unit for the monitoring and invoicing.If you decide to give it a try, feel free to use discount code msam10 for a 10% discount.If you have any questions or comments feel free to reach out to me directly.And if you need to buy a building to put Sub-Meters in, I’m happy to chat about that as well 🙂

The other part of my response is it depends on the business model you want to use. 

value adds, flipping, alternate rent models such as STR, MTR, rent by room  can help with the return. 

Assuming it is legitimate, the subject-to model can help you save money on taxes and get you a nice monthly check.
