In 2018, we had a property turn and the net cost to you out of pocket was around $500 (costs to repair minus the security deposit that was returned to you.)

* What do you do to ensure that the tenant is responsible for security deposit disputes since that is the largest reason for owner lawsuits* How familiar are you with the newly changed laws that can affect you the owner if they are not used correctly?

Also, right now we are utilizing FB but we may change this next year to a platform outside of FB for better interaction and more security.

What's more, the PM should have gone over when the unit was vacant to make sure it was secure (and lights and taps were turned off). 

The loan has a MUCH higher risk for the lender because it isn't secured by real estate.

-Decreased security deposit to 1x for MTR.

The real property investment can be repositioned if it proves disappointing in its original form; it can be refinanced or recapitalized if it has too much or too e pensive debt; inflation over time bales out many bad purchases, and finally the investors knowledge, experience and abilities can be leveraged to turn around a cash flow negative property.I’ll provide an exampleThree years ago we purchased a note from a bank secured by two auto repair facilities with a large amount of excess land.  

Reg D 504 allows non accredited but "sophisticated" investors.  

Prioritize tackling critical issues and beefing up security to keep your property safe and sound.

-When a tenant moved out, the management company refunded their security deposit but failed to account for damage, such as holes in walls and outlets ripped off the walls, leaving me with repair bills and also tenants moving in without the repairs being done.Stuff like this that is consistent and when I ask questions they are defensive, when I ask for more quotes for high ticket items they are defensive.
