Going to events, meeting people in the business who are actively investing in multifamily has really helped us learn and grow.Besides finding mentors, I agree that listening to podcasts and audio books is a great way to educate yourself, as well as attending events and meeting people local in your area who are real estate investors. 

The homes show you the quality of the work.

I just finished the audio for the book on Rentals by @BrandonatBP and my 2 year old called it "The House Story".  

Some of the challenges I’ve seen here are in the early stages of building a reputation of quality student rentals and then keeping your pipeline of upcoming students full for when turnovers occur. 

Finding quality and reliable contractors.

I believe if I put between 30k-50k into quality upgrades (I do most of the work myself) I could possibly sell for 500k or more.

Thus far Airbnb is saying they will not refund the guest as it does not quality for their extenuating circumstances, hopefully they do not reverse course on that decision.My understanding is right now the only valid CV cancellation is if you are travelling from overseas from China or a couple of other countries and your flight was cancelled, or if you are military or medical and and being called to service (existing interpretation of the special circumstances policy as they explained it). 

The best way to vet them is to see if the deals they are sending your way are quality or not.

More on identifying quality partners and structuring partnerships in future posts, for now please chime in and add to this discussion!

Your tenant quality goes down the neighborhood quality.
