.: Does anyone have personal experience turning your property into a rent by the room with pad split?

I tend to lean toward my clients getting some experience owning a standalone rental property prior to buying a live-in multiunit, but at the end of the day, every situation is different. 

Can anyone help me to figure out a good economical, small multifamily builder to contact, and a realtor with lots of this type of experience, or let me know if I'm on the right track with this?

@Walter PinedaEven if someone give you a referral, what meets their expectations, may not meet yours.In our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.It's often a case of not doing enough research, as they don't know what they don't know!

My first property was chaotic with tenant troubles, so Ohio being a landlord-friendly state and Parma Heights being A-class location, I'm eager to get involved and experience the difference.

I also have experience managing single-family rentals, including Section 8 properties.I am here to network, share insights, and connect with like-minded investors, lenders, and operators.

For those with experience, what has worked best for you?

I manage around 400 rentals with 14 years of experience and have never been sued once.

I would love to hear from anyone with experience in this space whether you've done it yourself or know someone who has.

And I feel the ideal portfolio can benefit from the diversification of both.1) Holdfolio isn't a match for me, personally (due to not enough experience, skin in the game, etc).
