Greatly increased lending capital by transitioning from a ‘blind pool” fund to a series LLC / syndication model where investors know the property lending deal before committing to any loan and can “pick and choose” whichever loans they do or do not want to participate in.  

I'm paintimg all my doors, cabinets, and baseboards semi-gloss, specifically so I can wipe them down easier.

If you have just one business it's not too bad(My wife uses it for hers) but it starts to get really expensive if you have a lot of doors and or multiple businesses. 

Appraisal fee seems very excessive if this is not more than 4 doors. 

I had to replace doors, carpets, repaint.

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

You've listed the "big three", and those are all that are needed for most MTRs, especially if you have a limited number of doors in an area.

I started by building a 12-door portfolio using the BRRRR method and self-managing initially.

The crash caused significant structural damage, and the driver fled the scene, later reporting the vehicle stolen.

Also measure the profit per door and fix or sell the dogs.
