Key risks include vacancy timeline, tenant profile, buildout costs, market trends, interest rate, financing, and repositioning.

Only 2.14% CoC return though 😞My all in is about $4,100 which includes $180 required flood insurance.

We ask for 30 days notice and include that in our lease agreement but understand and are flexible with tenants so long as they are respectful and cooperative.

I've been looking to branch out to a few different areas on the East Coast that would necessitate a property manager but Texas and its heavy investment in business, including the major tech investments in the works around Sherman are very intriguing.

I've included an example below to help illustrate this.So different lenders have different rates (which do vary even for DSCR loans) but these are factors they all consider.See example below:DSCR < 1Principal + Interest = $1,700Taxes = $350, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $50Total PITIA = $2200Rent = $2000DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2000/2200 = 0.91Since the DSCR is 0.91, we know the expenses are greater than the income of the property.DSCR >1Principal + Interest = $1,500Taxes = $250, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $25Total PITIA = $1875 Rent = $2300DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2300/1875 = 1.23If a purchase, you also generally need reserves / savings to show you have 3-6 month payments of PITIA (principal / interest (mortgage payment), property taxes and insurance and HOA (if applicable).

Definitely check their ID (FB is full of fake profiles) and screen thoroughly.... many, many scams out there right now. 

(Noticed I didn't include architects in that list - from my experience most architects are great at building design but shouldn't try to do land planning.)If you have never done any development like this before than it would make sense to partner with someone who has (or flip it entirely) once you have a site plan of the property's potential.

Before listing it, I had lots of expenses, including painting, floor refinishing, plumbing repairs, staging, cleaning, etc.In a 1031 exchange, I purchased two small multifamily homes which also have some roof work, painting, plumbing, etc. 

Perform the same task in each app to ensure a fair comparison.Load a property with pictures and details.Market that property.See what your marketing looks like from the public's perspective.Submit a fake application to see how easy the process is.Run a credit/screening report on yourself.Enter a maintenance request, assign a vendor, and attach a fake invoice.Enter charges to the tenant's ledger.Enter recurring charges and automatic late fees.Sign documents electronically.Run owner reports.After testing a few apps, one should clearly stand out.

Common fees will include a set-up fee, a leasing fee for each turnover or a lease renewal fee, marking up maintenance, retaining late fees, and more.
