They might be fine managing new construction, but I have seem MANY investors almost tank from their fee schedule on managing older homes...i would compare it to almost predatory practice.

If it's a long-term play, the potential savings on PMI with a conventional loan could be significant.Have you compared rates for both options?

Hi BP community - I'm an investor with 3 SFHs in the Nashville area looking to acquire my first small multifamily property (2-4 units).I'm trying to determine the best approach for the 25% downpayment, comparing using cash that is currently sitting in a high yield savings account to funds from a HELOC on one of my properties.

I really like LLCs compared to corporations because of the free stepped up basis for passing property to my children. 

From what I'm seeing the prices are pretty comparable to Miami's on the MLS. 

Other than that, it is really a light doc loan with not many strings attached compared to a conventional mortgage.

Happy to chat and connect if you want to compare notes.

We recommend you get management contracts from several PMCs and compare the services they cover and, more importantly, what they each DO NOT cover.

This plays into the affordability issues for tenants by allowing them to live in nicer neighborhoods for less money, yet I get monthly revenue comparable to short-term rentals.

What happens to the 'comparable value' if the area is uninhabitable or a community that won't return for years?
