Look for feedback on their service quality, property management, and overall investment performance.

However, Iowa markets have slower appreciation rates and may not be as appealing or gratifying for property management.

They are asking 950K.Gross rents: 100,800Utilities: 3KInsurance: 7KProperty taxes are roughly 10K for each 450K in value.Repair/Maintenance: Don't have figures yet but I'm assuming it'll average out around 10K a year.The lender I am speaking with also requires me to also include an 8% vacancy rate and a 5% management fee whether I have those or not.With an interest rate of 8.15% and 20 year amortization, I can't get close to a 1.2 DSCR until my amount borrowed is down to about 450K. 

Let's say they stay in the project for 9 months close to close.

Is it worth the hassle of even trying to manage remotely and just hire out the management side of it?

We manage 400+ units and only a handful are Section 8.

However, I have found it tiring to manage since it is far away from my primary residence.

The house currently rents for $1450/month, we have long-term tenants, and we use a management company.

Does anyone have any feedback on SimplifyEm property management software?

I have properties with swimming pool and playground so I am well aware of the risk management side but a winter item like this is a new for me!
