I know there are PMs that do only self-showings, but personally I think it is a lost opportunity to actually see who is (potentially) renting your property by speaking with them, and also a lost opportunity to sell the property.

They are most likely selling something.Definitely listen to the David Green Podcast on YouTube.

A very, very rough metric that you can possibly use to get an idea is 1/3, meaning if a new home may sell for 500k, then a developer may be able to pay 165k per paper lot, but of course there are so many variables, but that can give you a rough idea.

Quote from @Bruce Woodruff: Only if you paln on helping other people buy and sell properties.

The guy said to hold onto a rental for 3 to 5 years then if the ROI decreases they sell it and find a new market.

They began their company, Magnolia, years ago as a house flipping business and a small gift shop that they still own and sell products out of.

If you decide to sell it after a Padsplit conversion, you can't sell to traditional homebuyers or long-term rental landlords.

Heard the owner was interested in selling so I proactively reached out and secured the sale How did you finance this deal?

If you are brand new, drive around and make notes of just a few properties that might be looking to sell based on their upkeep.

and of course a lot of DSCR loans are quote with a 5 year pre-payment penalty which of course can be VERY expensive if you have a 5 year flat 5% PPP and either rates drop or market conditions are such that you would like to sell the property. 5% of 300k for example would be 15k.
