Another difference is the difference in marketing channels.  

When I wanted to sell it, I realized that I was so clueless in market research that I bought it above market rate, which hasn't changed since then.

With 100 properties at those margins, the public markets would assign a 10x multiple on revenue, equaling a $258m valuation (100 properties * $21,500/month * 12 months * 10x).

I'd like some true feedback from current users as there's not a lot of review to be found online.

This hands-on approach could also give you more flexibility to adjust to market conditions, like listing at the right time.Lastly, even though you didn’t invest your own money in the deal, building relationships with your private money lenders and owner financiers for future deals is key.

Also, I get an alert when the deposit is made (good for tracking late payments) and the online statements list their names that are on the card.

The market seems affordable and AirDNA number look good on for short-term rental.

Study the market.

I personally have never known a bank to sell a property off market.

A duplex is a great way to get your feet wet in multifamily investing, giving you two rental incomes under one roof, which can be a great balance between cash flow and passive income.I’d also suggest looking at markets that offer solid rental returns.
