While I did not work with other agents or lenders for this particular deal, my professional experience ensured a smooth transaction and effective project management.

Don't expect these people to have anything to do with you once the transaction is over and a lot of bitter, nasty fights along the way. 

We've had zero phone calls answered or returned, multiple promises or calls "tomorrow" to talk through issues unmetAt this point we've hired another PM (Sadly MidSouth Homebuyers, whom we have other properties with and have had nothing but excellent experience, wouldn't manage this location) who is now going through re-keying the property and assessing the state of the rehab.This was a test property for us, so we learned what we wanted to learn on this transaction.

Who do you think takes the gravy in these transactions? 

On a more enterprise scale, I employ RevMax software as well as a fractional revenue manager who looks at the prices daily on a market level and a comp set level. 

While I’ve been handling smaller real estate transactions for about a year and a half, I knew I needed guidance to break into this space.

I am not quite in that boat of disposable income that I could stomach losing, but I have determined a reasonable strategy of maybe going in 1k at a time on a 3-6 month journey to 10x 5 to 10 transactions.

Buildim has a general ledger so you can record credit card transactions the same as in any other bookkeeping software 1- add to chart of accounts a current liability called for example capital one credit card2- when you want to record a credit card transaction go to general ledger create a journal entry, for example if you swiped your card for a maintenance expense in the amount of 1,000  youshould debit maintenance 1,000 and credit your liability account called capital one credit card for 1,000so your liability account balnce is always the same amount as your credit card balance 3- if you pay intrest on your credit card add to charts of accounts an expense account called capital one intrest fees and when you got charged intrest create a journal entry debiting capital one intrest expense account and crediting your liability account 4- to record a payment to your credit card you can record a check from your bank account payable to capital one you should add them as a vendor or you can do a journal entry It simple for anyone with a little bookeeping knowledge and btw thats how its also done in quickbooks or anywhere else And thats the correct way doing it although there are a few other workaround ways for exemple creating a contra asset or as paying a vendor So i dont know why you blame buildium it would be the same with any other software 

I remember spending entire weekends crunching numbers, gathering receipts from random shoeboxes and backtracking through countless transactions in my bank account.
