It’s incredibly messy and time consuming.

I have been consuming as much education/reading regarding out of state investing as I can as well as literature regarding buying larger buildings (not quite the syndication level) although I have been reading that material as well to digest.

It allows you to skip the stress and time-consuming process of managing rehab projects and focus on the cash flow aspect. 

For most, this isn't a realistic option so they update some of the most important regions themselves and copy the data from other providers where they don't have coverage.This is a big problem with these big consumer-grade real estate analytics platforms—you don't really know the source of that data, its frequency, etc.

It also allows you to search 400 property and property owner consumer fields, in addition to being a driving for dollars tool.

Sometimes, buying an existing property can be more cost-effective and less time-consuming and maybe require slightly less permits, etc. 

This creates an initial negative equity position that consumes the initial cash flow, sometimes for many years.

That’s more time-consuming, though, and since the lease is almost over, non-renewal is probably your best bet.Also, keep documenting everything: complaints from other tenants, the steps you’ve taken, and any interactions you have with the tenant.

This negative position can consume years of cash flow to recover.

If I may, a lot of the issues we are running into with insurance is that consumers no longer use insurance as a catastrophic fall back but rather, they nickel and dime on small claims that compund into larger issues.
