As a professional property manager, I'm coming across an interesting trend related to institutions providing financial assistance for tenants who have trouble paying their security deposit and I would love to hear feedback from the BP community.Large PM companies have begun partnering with financial institutions, such as Rhino Insurance, to help tenants who struggle with paying their security deposit.

It felt like everyone I found were self-serving, looking to line their own pockets, or not willing guide because of fear of competition.

I have heard good things about Ohio, Indiana, etc.5 - Due to high interest rates flipping has become highly risky and most businesses have dried up.6 - Co-living and Assisted living seems to be popular right now.So - really depends on your market, your strategy, and your timeline.

Spend a little more money than you might have been planning to, buy in a better area (i.e. not a “turn key” 100k house off the mls), and self manage.

Otherwise, you will likely be copying someone else's false expectations.I have reviewed hundreds of such self-constructed logs, and most of them will not hold water.

In my case, I have residential rentals in one LLC, commercial properties in another, self-storage in a third, and my real estate company operates in a fourth.

I hadn’t heard about interest going back to self tho! 

One last question - is your assistant actually hand writing the envelop?

Are you self-managing? 

If you go back to work as self employed, there are some NonQM programs out there that can do a cash out refi after just 1 year of bank statements or P&L.
