Denayer Burns Additional Streams of Income

Eh...not to say this is a bad idea, but in my opinion, I think its more effective to just focus on the core concept of the business, the actual lease of the property to generate good profits rather than trying to nickel and dime tenants into more profits.Obviously, items like laundry services and perhaps vending machines might work well and make since in a multifamily setting, but I think offering to wide of a selection of add-ons cause an over complexity to a business that often runs smoothest when kept simple.In a large, class A facility, there are probably lots of avenues for setting up additional revenue streams and services, much of what can be outsourced, but for attempting to confuse a lease with different services and add on costs can often become a headache to manage on top of the tenants.At the very least, instead of offering additional services, I would simply partner with local businesses who might allow you to profit from discount, bulk pricing which you can then up charge to tenants.

Kihlon Golden To File (a Claim) or Not to File
27 August 2015 | 5 replies
 $60k is a big chunk of change, depending on how you have your coverage structured and if the loss is covered etc, and if its roof or mechanically related, you might get some nice capital improvements by filing the claim on the insurance dime -- will just have to weigh the pro's / con's and the financial aspects of your different decisions available to you.
