@Peter Mckernan @Mark Frattini@Allen Tracy @Katie L. also looking for a RE-savvy CPA in California who can work with me to execute the STR strategy to offset W2 income with losses from a cost seg study I'm conducting.

In this document, I will share a portion of a study I conducted with some of our clients.

Every system you try will have flaws, or you may salivate over a feature that appears in other software.Some familiar names are mentioned frequently: Stessa, Apartments.com, RentRedi, TenantCloud, Innago, RentManager, Avail, Rentec Direct, Doorloop, etc.I recommend conducting thorough research on each app online to understand their offerings, pricing, etc.

It's a commission paid for conduction the transaction.

@Frank Jakubiec conduct some research and build relationships with local small banks who offer construction financing.

Analyze financials, conduct due diligence, and understand financing options.

@w phillpots, as a newbie, which I consider myself 19 months into investing, but not new to entrepreneurship, you have to understand quickly that a lot of people won't embrace your newbie status into this space, especially when you come with a mindset of leveraging technology, automation, and anything online related to conduct business that's adverse to that archaic models that didn't allow space for everyone to succeed, let alone participate in.

This is just an example, certainly conduct your own diligence but don't feel obligated to use the name brands (ie andersen, pella)..especially their entry level windows or those you will buy at a Home Depot or Lowes.

Do you now how to market the property, screen applicants, enforce a contract, conduct inspections, coordinate and supervise maintenance, etc?

My distinction here would be you still conduct the sale and sign the agreements.
