I then would have my tax cpa enter in or do it after discussing tax based items (depreciation- MACRS, reserves, year end accruals, reserves, etc.).

That said, I’ve never carried out a syndication before, so I’m looking to hear from those of you who have.1) What was your experience with syndication?

Also, what others have said, the personal touches on what is in your place (e.g. providing all the essentials instead of having people buy TP, coffee, shampoo, etc.) and the quality of those items (no tattered towels, stained sheets, etc.).

I have been using Appsheet for other items and can create something I can send the tenants.Thanks 

These are just some of the additional items that will have a significant impact on carrier's rates, your premiums, and whether we start to see the insurance market soften anytime soon or not.

They will also often carry very expensive interest rates and have other fees tacked on.

A D class neighborhood will carry a stigma with local residents.

Then compare that to what you’d net by listing it as-is—factoring in the time you save and the carrying costs you avoid by not renovating.It might seem straightforward, but once you dive into the numbers, the difference between renovating versus selling as-is can be surprising.

They keep any profits above 12% and it appears they charge about a 2% fee plus a couple other nonsense items (based on my very brief skimming through some info).
