So when I was getting closing to signing on the load it cost me %.5 extra in interest because the property wasn't occupied. 

Property was more disgusting than we anticipated and we had to put extra money into deeper cleaning.

Because interest rates are high right now it probably doesn’t make sense to pull extra cash just to stick it in a bank account.

First, don't use REI Reply, it's just a white-labelled/private-agency version of GoHighLevel (the actual provider of the CRM) that they just mark up and charge you extra for everything you do (every text, email, etc is 2-10x more expensive than just linking twilio/mailgun to your GHL account, etc).With that out of the way, you can get to making workflows.

Just pick a route, get extra liability and focus on growing. 

It’s worth the extra effort to protect your investment.

That has led them to continue to jack up rent prices and often, push out good tenants for the sake of an extra $100/month.

If we need customized items, like a Leasehold DOT on an airplane hangar portfolio, then we (borrower) pay extra. 

They are paying you an extra 5% per month.
