@Gary Abrams A cloud based solution would work really well in your scenario of having other family logging in and helping with management. 

I'm an experienced project manager with hundreds of cradle-to-grave efforts under my belt, including building project scopes and budgets, evaluating contract proposals, and managing construction to maintain the delivery of high quality products on-time and in budget.Penny is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), serving the community mental health needs of parents, children and families.We both recognize we have an immense opportunity to serve our community and want to capitalize on the blessings we have been provided so that we can continue serving our neighbors.My wife, Penny, and I are looking to transition into commercial multi-family real estate in 2025.

.: In a prior post from about 2 months ago, Kerry Malarkey and Nathan Gesner mentioned a small landlord is exempt from FHA requirements requiring the acceptance of emotional support & assistance animals if one of the following is true:"Owner-occupied buildings Properties with four units or fewer that are owned and lived in by the ownerSingle-family homes Homes that are sold or rented without a broker by the owner, as long as the owner doesn't own more than three at once" (Quote from Nathan's reply))https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/52/topics/1219359-pitbu...Given this, if a landlord does qualify for the exemption, what exactly does this mean? 

DSCR or Fannie/Freddie loans can go up to 75% on single family homes, multi family homes (2-4 unit) max at 70% if you stick with Fannie/Freddie.Other things to consider would be:Paying points for a lower rate vs higher rate with no pointsIf going DSCR - Prepayment penalty term (0-5 years)The lower the loan size ($200-250k and lower), you should consider paying up to 2 points and doing a 5 year prepayment penalty if going DSCR.

Also if you have a single-family house already sometimes loan underwriters don't approve you moving from a single-family to a multifamily.

Usually, there isn’t an actual lawyer, or it’s a family member who doesn’t want to get involved.

Also, watch out for any litigation or construction issues that could lead to HOA fee increases down the road.Alternatively, you could consider a good deal on a single-family home or a 2-4 unit property.
