I think it's all very regional and just because  you are over the grey and look at it them all the time doesn't mean the buyers/ tenants are.I do wonder if some of the "this is what sells" is more about that is what is available, if 80% of the houses have the same finishes then guess what, that is mostly what will sell. 

The issue is that I would like to manage this property myself and would like to be known as the property manager and not a landlord.Since the property is under my name, I was wondering if there was a way to have them write out their checks to a company name rather than my name for obvious reasons stated above.

I am now summarizing the key points for managing rental properties to build my systems before launch ( I am strongly considering Rent-Redi software) but I am wondering how I would use this software for client's properties when collecting rent, holding deposits and the like.

My goal is to own more rental properties, and was wondering whats the best strategy to achieve this, with regards to what to do with monthly excess money. 

I'm in a similar situation and wondering if I can buy it my ex using the net worth of the properties (gross minis depreciation and capital gains)

That's is what was wondering too!

I'm wondering what the best thing to do here is.

She worked wonders for us.

Not only are Queens and Brooklyn the busiest Counties in terms of activity (new listings), but they also have some of the most competitive investors in our market.Properties are selling for 8.5% more than they were in 2023, showing us just how desirable the borough is.With its proximity to NYC, numerous public transportation options, and overall vibe and attraction, it is no wonder why the popularity has been reflected in the buy-and-hold rental market.

I am wondering if I would need to put in a fire escape, and what other steps other than going to township would I need to consider?
