In terms of what I would personally do, I would hire a someone to get rid of the bed bugs ASAP.

I actually hired an attorney who told me the new owner is responsible/liable for the tree, not me...

And any other house after that I would gradually hire a laborer, then a painter and I would do the skilled work.

Hi all, I am new to multi family and I am planning to hire a property manager for 4/5 unit MFR.

It's always good to get other people's advice based on their own experiences aside from the professional you are hiring.

So, we're talking about a deal like this: Investor purchases the lot from me in cash (which would have to be surveyed and split).We hire a builder to build a home that fits in the neighborhood.We sell it. 

It should help with whatever non-commuter business you can generate though.I'd hire a real marketing pro well before you launch, while you can still tweak strategy and messaging.One other note on your employees. 

In an attempt to add value to her and the education they will be providing me, my thought is to hire a friend of mine who produces high quality video content for real estate agents and auctioneers(yes, there will be drone footage).

Definitely spend some time looking into other inspectors in your area before hiring someone for your next purchase.  

Is there a cheaper streamlined approach to this or do we need to go through the whole probate filing and attorney hiring which I believe will be around 5K?
