From what I’ve seen in CNBC reports, this strategy appeals to investors who want to diversify without committing large sums upfront.

So I'm always able to offer a lower rate and make a decent living without charging points.My final thought, if you want to find the single lowest price in the market, I don't know how many companies you've spoken with, but 5,113 companies reported making residential mortgages in 2023.

Had that then a couple of separate quality and report issues.  

I know when I was an active Broker my SOP  was get listing open escrow with buyer to be determined and order the preliminary title report prior to spending money on marketing someones property..

You'll be tagging transactions throughout the year with categories that fit the Schedule E so when tax time comes (if you stay on top of it) every deposit and expenditure will already be categorized and it's quick to create the Schedule E and/or run P&L reports any time you need to.

It markets our properties, screens our tenants, collects our rent, deposits it into our bank accounts, has full accounting and reporting features, has a tenant facing web portal & app where tenants can log in and report maintenance issues and see their account, etc, for $2/door/month - but they have a $45 minimum monthly fee... so up until you cross 22 doors it would be $45.

Be aware of tax implications: rental income is taxed in the property’s state and reported on your California return, with deductions for travel, depreciation, and expenses.

I'll see what they say and report back. 

I appreciated that they volunteered that I would not be required to go to them for repairs, but that they were there if I wanted.They are delivering it on Monday, December 11th, so I will report back with the verdict once it's up and running.

Always use a title report and escrow though.It's over paying on a creative finance transaction that tends to happen.
