Here’s a thought:Step back and evaluate which properties, if any, are truly worth keeping based on current performance and future potential.

Any thoughts on how to choose - what metrics to evaluate, resources to read to help? 

If you find this is the case with a property you’re evaluating I would run away not walk as this can be a huge problem for future cash flow.

If you don't know what it will rent for or how many days per month you expect it to rent, you can't even start to evaluate whether it would work as a short term rental.

Don't want to work a W2 forever.I haven't tried all of the platforms by any means but Gemini vs ChatGPT for example, I will ask them questions in regards to evaluating markets and if they don't like the idea (don't know where to look?)

-Evaluate our rentals for cost savings/reduced expenses/potential sales.

@Patrick Shawn Faherty there's certainly enough feedback on this forum that anyone should be able to make an informed decision about MI, When evaluating any turn key companies, there are the things one should look for.In general, the ones to avoid are the ones that: Don't allow financing or a finance contingency (it can be a good indication they are selling above market value)Don't allow for your own independent property inspectionAre not realistic with their pro forma's (i.e. they don't include vacancy or maintenance projections or use unrealistically low vacancy factors)Require you to pay for any renovation upfrontSell only in cheap. low end neighborhoodsDon't accurately represent the neighborhood/property classificationDon't have consistent rehab standards for all propertiesDon't provide a scope of work for the propertyCan't provide references of repeat investors Require you to close before a tenant is in place

I’m always looking to improve my process and would be happy to share some insights I’ve gathered on deal evaluation and contractor management.

Also hoping it would help me evaluate properties better or gage compentency of construction crews i work with.
