Lastly, I have been lenient with the tenants regarding late rent.

@Brody VeilleuxTo maximize returns on multifamily housing, focus on mid-grade updates, amenities, curb appeal, utilities, exploring additional units, creating flexible spaces, and refinancing with a value-add record.

Hey @Jeff Ryan - While I can not speak to your exact situation, I can speak to the thousands of homes I have walked here in Chicago, where majority of the homes were built in the late 1800s/early 1900s.I would say that 7/10 of the older homes I look at have some sort of settlement in the foundation, which causes the cracks and sloped floors you are mentioned you are seeing in your property. 

Hey guys, late to the party, but I'm heavily involved in investment real estate as a Broker Associate and investor in Fredericksburg, TX as well as our second home in Natchez, MS.

List all the mistakes you made, from screening to accepting late rents. 

Thanks @Bob MaleckiSo by return are we talking about annual return? 

I don't know if the returns would be there unless you are doing something at a scale where you have half a dozen to a dozen STRs in the same general proximity.

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.
