In addition, we pull our own comps and use Lightning Docs to generate our loan documents.

They generate about $300k in rent, I get to keep about $250k of that in cashflow.

The property was rented and generated $160 cash flow after mortgage, taxes, insurance and property management fees were paid.

Hi Jessica, I would suggest getting a propstream or any other lead generation account, finding cash buyers who bought similiar properties to yours in the last 3-6 months in the area of the properties you are looking to sell, skip trace then cold call or cold texting the list. 

Early on, rents would remain market-aligned to ensure the portfolio generates the income needed to cover expenses, pay investors, and reinvest in expansion.

Rentals generate passive income, so an S-Corp offers no added tax benefit.

A lot of our housing stock here has finished basements or in-law suites, so with something like that you can generate significant rental income for an inexpensive conversion.
