Has the city issued the owner a citation that the unit needs to be decommissioned?

Pest control varies in each state,, but I would call other owners to see what they are doing.

Also, we are one of the few (owners) who pick up the phone, especially after hours and weekends.Google search and ads are our main pull.

As far as financing, I have considered  1) an FHA loan with a cosigner, and 2) going off market and approaching many owners about potentially seller financing.Any and all feedback, advice, and info on potential pitfalls would be appreciated!

It turns out I may have jumped the gun a bit, but thankfully, I managed to sort things out with the 3 girls, and we found a 4th roommate just in time for classes to start.

For finding off-market properties, PropertyRadar has been a lifesaver for me.On social media, I’ve had success connecting with property owners and fellow investors through Facebook groups and LinkedIn.

There are syndication/crowdfunding funds currently being launched now which intend to take over deals from syndicators/operators (where those same owners would otherwise have to turn the keys over to the bank).Generally the ones in trouble are those that structured too aggressively (high debt, floating rate, etc).

To fund additional investments, consider side income, creative financing or creating a timeline with your co-owner for converting property B into a rental to generate cash flow.

On the surface, it appears to be a straightforward role, but it becomes far more challenging when faced with issues like non-paying tenants requiring eviction or broken systems that haven't been properly followed.As a self-managing property owner, it is absolutely doable—but success depends on treating it like a business.

But I found an owner of a seafood company that had money but didn’t have time and I had time but didn’t have money.
