Quote from @Yaroslav Shtogun: Hello Community,I am seeking advice on the following real estate situation:I’m in the process of purchasing a double lot property (100x100 in an RS-50 zone) that includes a 1,200 sqft wood-frame house and a 640 sqft detached garage.

I think young students- freshmen especially, like them because they are affordable and a good step towards independence.

He liked the idea so we created an LLC and a partnership agreement and he deposited 100k into the business account.

I have one near a homeless shelter and a liquor store.

Basically - I want a PM who keeps the property in good shape and occupied to get paid, and a PM who is either bad at maintaining properties and finding good tenants, or just really unlucky, to not get paid.- PM charges 8% of rent, which escalates to 10% if the property exceeds 95% occupancy with rent collection. - PM charges minimal fees.- PM is contractually obligated to perform annual maintenance/inspection to keep property in top shape. - PM provides a cash based accounting report every month, for every unit under management, that clearly labels all rent, all expenses, including management fees, and the net directly ties to the amount of money deposited into my bank account.- PM is a licensed handyman, or has them on staff, and takes care of most unit turn work at a reasonable rate. - PM has no breakup/termination fee- PM does not take project management fees, except on large or complicated CapEx projects exceeding $5,000. 

I don't have any specifics but as someone who is into tech, accounting/finance, and a consultant to grow businesses.

So she took that extra space, added a wall and a hidden door and poof!

RW discovered that most clients shop with a "what are the monthly management fees" approach and not a "what are all of your revenue streams" approach.RW competes with a very competitive flat monthly management fee but then charges a minimum of 1 full month's rent for leasing and a host of other fees. 

If they try to pay their labor as 1099 they run at great risk of violating a host of draconian labor laws such as AB5, the borello law and a litany of "misclassification" laws.There are substantial differences in how "right to work" statstate as operate as opposed to "non right to work" states.SBA defines a small business based on employees and revenue size.

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.
