:)Any plumber can help figure out if it's going to be physically practical to submeter based on the existing construction.  

I am interested in this too and would love specific books, conference/boot camp guidance so I'm not told to "practice messing up" on a smaller deal?

I strongly discourage the use of a VA as they may not understand questions being asked, an accent can be a turn off, and most serious investors frown on the practice. 

Right now I am trying to get some practice analyzing deals with the BRRR calculator.

In practice everyone must test and develop their own methods based first on extensive research.

Good practice is to always make it known :)

The SEO is the trick on that one.

I personally keep each one under it's own llc, with separate bank accounts and do not commingle funds.but check with a local attorney that practices in real estate law.

Bet on number 7 in the second race if you live across from the track....No really.....One oddball I have read in a couple of books and even online (here and elsewhere) that may have some merit is juding a potential property/tenants by their vehicles....( not the only metric for sure but just one observable factor of many to consider along with all the other data points and best practices).If the place you are looking at has a bunch of older inefficient, beater cars in the lot, this may be a management issue (leaking oil, immobile cars, unsightly) AND also eating up the tenants monthly paychecks in repairs, fuel, etc. 

I know that it's up for negotiation, but I wanted to know the usual practice for commercial properties.Your advice would be greatly appreciated.
