On stuff like this in which the other agent is verbally telling me something I usually like to get it in writing for this very reason.

Just learning for now, I'll reach out to some banks to figure this stuff out better later once my head is more on straight.

Very basic stuff.

there really are no magic tips. the only thing you can do is (yes the love letter) and try to clean up the terms - short inspection and loan contingencies. have strong relationship with their lender and see if the lender would be willing, if necessary to talk with the listing agent to address any concerns the listing agent has regarding financing.i have a new listing that needed some sprucing - i went to target and bought some things (which I will return) to tart up the bathrooms, kitchen and living room - plants, kitchen stuff, towels, pillows for the couch, etc...

Lots of stuff to think about and good questions for our CPA/lawyer.I think since we’re excited about the possibilities for us as a family to use this place, we’re likely to move forward.

Some months maintenance stuff pops up and I take a hit and go negative. 

Pros:It’s very user-friendlyIt’s freeTransactions automatically import from my bank account and credit cardMy CPA can log in to review stuff and there are pretty nice tax reports that you can run at the end of the yearIt’s made for real estate investors so it’s tailored to be used for multiple properties and/or portfoliosCons:It’s not customizable like QuickbooksThere is no way to run a balance sheet so I have to reconcile with my bank statement outside of Stessa each month. 

However Ive been crazy busy and had a lot of stuff that has come up recently and I'm starting to wonder if I should flip this for some quick cash. 

I definitely think small multi family has more deals out there than the single family stuff.

One of my tenants living in the basement units stopped paying after Ida quoting her mattress and some other stuff was damaged.
