If you're hesitant about our services, you can DM me on BiggerPockets here and I'd be happy to chat.Thank you, and I welcome feedback from anyone via a DM if they have ideas on how we can improve our service and provide genuine value to landlords and renters.One rent is a scam everything you said IS NOT TRUE, we are still waiting for the money onerent has to pay us.

Having a property manager is the solution for dealing with matters that occur with problematic elements of our population, and in alleviating yourself from these kind of stressful encounters.  

Did you encounter any issues with neighbors or the city?  

There are still ways to make STRs work (good deal on a home, buying down to a lower interest rate, etc.) but make sure your profits are worth the hassle that you will encounter, because there WILL be some hassle with STRs. 

I posted because this would be my first time asking for DSCR, Fix/flip, long term/short term financing & I’m curious how that plays around what we’ve been encountering in Detroit.

Jake, Gino, Josh, Dillon, and their entire team are some of the most genuine people I've ever encountered.

For those of you experienced in finding undervalued properties, what are the biggest risks and rewards you've encountered?

Scams on the elderly.

Thanks for the mention @Nathan Gesner@Jodi-Ann Birch we don't do business up in Flint, but we have encountered Gebrael Management a few times as they've tried to do business in Metro Detroit.They seem to have good processes, but please validate they will meet your expectations.Recommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.
