@Tayvion Payton here's some useful info:Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I feel that if I did switch to another software platform like Rentastic, I would have to get a new team, or expect them to learn a new system.What's your thoughts?

These guru's pitch get rick quick with no money down, so people "want to be investors" but fail to start because they had unrealistic expectations from day 1.  

Expectations are we hit at least $150k+ this year in revenue.

Just make sure you mention it in your listing description so expectations are met if they do need to access it!

People don't read STR descriptions you see this alot with international properties where people expect US standards.

It's costly but that's what is expected.  

Communicate expectations upfront—because once they start double-parking or treating the place like a frat house, it’s game over.Cameras, Cameras EverywhereYou’d think adults wouldn’t steal each other’s food, right?

They're pretty organized, but expect annual inspections and some extra paperwork. 

Originally posted by @Michael Kinsella:I would second what @Jay Hinrichs said above...there was a follow up post where someone got a loan from them but for realistic rates 8% or so and few points.. under 6% private / hard money simply does not exist unless its a family friends type situation. that bank rates or lower right now for new construction or fix flip Generally speaking, I would be highly skeptical of rates under 8% for a hard money bridge-type scenario.Hard money lenders are getting their capital from somewhere, and those investors are expecting to earn a reasonable yield.
