We have created work instructions for every step of the process so we can maintain consistency in how we evaluate properties, communicate with tenants, market our properties, handle rent increases, manage property turnover, etc..... 

If you can get in before a property hits the market, you can often negotiate a great win-win deal for everyone. 

I'd be interested in any insight on the Sacramento market, esp. from investors in multifamily.

If have investment property, we are looking for relatively updated units (we are ok doing some work ourselves), class C+/B tenants, with rents either close to market rate or that can be increased.

Quote from @Mark Simpson: Interesting use case for ChatGPT Operator:I asked it to do a market analysis and compare a random Airbnb listing to others in the area.

The house has been on the market for many months..."

I'm really looking forward to your blog and hearing about your experiences in these markets.

Be sure to check out the free tools BP provides to help analyze deals you may have and also market insights.

You should start with a focus on a 2 unit multifamily property in a market that you can afford to get into. 

It’s not necessarily more difficult than market-rate rentals, just different.If you’re seriously considering this route, feel free to reach out.
