Initially, the business was cash-flow positive for the first three months, but things have declined since then.I received several negative reviews due to cleaning issues, and it took me over a year—cycling through multiple cleaners and settling for an average one—before finally hiring a great cleaner.

PS I finally had a Rueben ball last trip into Cleveland  gut bomb for sure :) Yea definitely some artery cloggers.

I currently am working on a project and have a ppm my lawyer is finalizing a few things on and have a few ideas on how to raise but wanted to reach out to hear from other investors that do have more experience in this area. 

The real property investment can be repositioned if it proves disappointing in its original form; it can be refinanced or recapitalized if it has too much or too e pensive debt; inflation over time bales out many bad purchases, and finally the investors knowledge, experience and abilities can be leveraged to turn around a cash flow negative property.I’ll provide an exampleThree years ago we purchased a note from a bank secured by two auto repair facilities with a large amount of excess land.  

Instead of giving me excuses, brushing me off, ect ect, my taxes were done in 3 days.My tax liability went down by 10k with my deductions (now finally added) and my new CPA charged me $1300 for my business, personal and WALKING ME THROUGH THE WHOLE PROCESS.True Books charged me $6500 to get to this point (and wanted another $1500 for the final leg) to basically have me rack up fines, brush me off and gaslight me as if this is the norm.I'm writing this review as I wish someone had written it for me. 0/5 stars.The only thing True Books got done in a timely matter was the cashing of my checks.Sorry!

She finally agreed that it could work. 

One of the utilities, South West Gas, based in CA, gave me a hard time putting the account into my own name. after several calls, faxing the court-stamped eviction order, verifying my deed through the County, etc,  the operator finally agreed and started to backdate the account change to the beginning of the process!

The walls in your own house are going to be covered in scuffs and marks but for some reason the buyer completing their final walk through will have heightened awareness.

If curious, here are the last two: Jan 2023: Multifamily Real Estate is At Risk of CrashingFeb 2024: Multifamily is at High Risk of Continuing It's Historic CrashI think that the title for my 2025 analysis (likely Jan/Feb publication will be something more like:Multifamily is Finally Going to Hit Rock Bottom in Q2/Q3 2025 - Get Ready to Buy a LOT of itAs usual, I like to publish my draft thoughts here to get input from key players in the space and these forums, especially folks like @Brian Burke, to see if I am missing any high level areas, before I get into the weeds and look at the data more deeply and regionally. 

I know a lot of CA investors doing MTR/STRs to cash flow in-state and OOS but it's a lot more work, not mailbox money.I hear stories of OOS investors losing money in the Midwest, the worst being a CA investor buying 3 apartment Class C complexes in Missouri who finally sold it 3 years year with all the repairs and tenant issues after changing PMs which didn't help.
