With a lease many times over time landlords are not formal and communication is oral, txt, email, etc.

There are cheaper one’s in D/F areas but I would be careful as those can create a laundry list of additional issues.

A good manager will handle tenant communication, security deposit transfers, and ensure a smooth transition for you.Changing managers doesn’t have to be difficult—following the agreement and partnering with a competent new PM will help you get things back on track.

I have done it in the past and never had an issue until recently.

Tenant is now saying that she’s in a hotel because the issue is getting worse and that the apt has had roaches for “years”. 

Many are also tired of homeless issues, politics, and now more than ever natural disasters. 

But in my opinion, the biggest issue I see with folks jumping into their first "big" multifamily deal is the quality of the pro forma. 

Its been a wild ride though doing all this through massive inflation and supply chain issue and Covid..
