It's like using your ex's lawyer to draft the divorce papers then just signing them blindly without getting your own lawyer to review and negotiate.

Regarding the other comment, I would strongly recommend using a PM, while on paper they "cut into profits", I believe they save you money (and time) in the long run if you have a good one.

Section 8 sounds great on paper but there are a lot of things to consider. 

B Class properties - they usually can breakeven on paper, don't necessarily need a PM but if the deal can still work with them, then they're beneficial to keep on.Are you self managing a C Class property in Indianapolis or did you need to find a property manager/leasing agent afterwards?

My A class that I own I self manage I have a RE agent that puts them up they find a tenant I require 700 plus fico so that weeds out 90% of renters and then I set them up on auto pay and if they have an issue we send handyman.. to be fair my units are basically new construction and townhouses in HOA's in the Desert ( vegas) so there simply is not a lot of maintenance. there is A class in every city its just that investors get so focused on  positive cash flow they dont buy those for rental purposes so they miss out on the best rental tenants.. the higher the cash flow on paper the lower the quality of the units.. its a fact..

Here is a list of all the stuff I love about REIHUb, and why I'm paying them $25/month even when there are plenty of other options that are cheaper, offer more features (on paper), or both:Their bank account import is flawless, with none of the sync issues I had with Quickbooks or Stessa.

I want to use the equity in my CA home for the downpayment"me: "gasp" there was very popular post a few years back and LA based investor took out a large HELOC on their personal residence so they could buy 8 units in a mid west city.. that he admitted were D class and on paper the cash flow was huge etc etc.. 

@Nida KazmiI don't know anything about these companiesBut you won't "cashflow day 1" Maybe on paper - but not in the real worldSet expectations accordingly

Paul McCommas who made over $26M in only 3 years selling paper, not properties.I won't be coming here for advice anymore.
