Hello All     I have heard the ads on the Bigger Pockets pod cast in relation to the Avail landlord software online tool. 

Hi everyone,As a newbie in the world of Real Estate Investing (REI), I'm eager to establish a strong foundation for managing my finances.To streamline this process and stay organized, I'm seeking recommendations for user-friendly online bookkeeping tools specifically designed for REI.

We then spent around $30,000 out of pocket on renovations, including repairing the roof, upgrading the electric panel, installing new HVAC, and putting in a new kitchen.After completing the work, we refinanced with LendingOne using a 30-year fixed-rate DSCR product at around 7%, which resulted in a net cash-out of approximately $15,000.A couple of things to note:I'm out of pocket on this property for around $40,000 ($25k down, $30k rehab, minus $15k recaptured).I'm thrilled with this amount since it's far less than our "normal" 25% down strategy would require based on the higher value.The property appraised for $330,000 after the renovations.The key point for me is that this property is now netting around $800/month in cash flow.

Very few mortgages last 30 years before they are paid off or refinanced. 5-7 years is the average life of a mortgage right now, and 10 years isnt unrealistic.

What is the maximum time you allow for payment of security and 1st month's rent after an applicant signs an ONLINE  lease - 1 hr, 24 hrs, 48 hrs?

Im new to this all and found this property online just to try the calculator out.
