Hi there,Congratulations on your decision to purchase your first small multifamily property Here are some answers to your practical questions:### Cleaning Common AreasYou should clean the common areas regularly to keep the property tidy and safe.

Additionally, as long as you put 20% down, it typically keeps you safe in terms of cash flow, and then you simply have a couple dozen houses with tenants paying off your mortgages.

it’s safe to assume you don’t have your business fully set up yet.Let me ask you:Do you have a website?

I hope everyone is well and safe.

Safe travels and see you in Houston!

@Kim A. would say that a great thing any flipper can do is develop their own off-market seller marketing techniques.

LMHA gets a staff of a couple dozen people and a big budget to be bureaucratic, the tenant gets cost effective safe housing, and we get steady rent checks)Does anyone else have these issues???

That, or an actual recession that causes people to take money out of equities and into the safe haven of bonds...

This is even true for student debt.I recommend the old-school, proven technique of paying off all debt.

To be safe, consider starting with standard percentages or slightly reduced figures until you have reliable data on the property’s performance.
