Mark Vandzura, I personally spent hours with you on the phone sorting out the accounting error that got fixed and you agreed was fine.

I prefer to use in- house platform messaging for basic messages, and actually write personal messages for anything else.

A cost segregation study was performed on this single family home in Fort Worth, TX purchased in 2023 with a depreciable cost basis of $272,633.

These are groups where other investors network and learn but in person.  

You either have personal knowledge or boots on the ground so you won't be throwing a dart at a place you know nothing about outside of a spreadsheet.

They are expensive $200 each but they do not break down and you can track who uses codes so a family could each have their own code per person.

Once you have those personal experiences from managing your own property, you will be able to identify and vet these property management companies when they're trying to make excuses of whatever the reason is as it stops you from achieving your objective. 

Most lenders will require a 15-20% down payment assuming credit is strong and property can perform from a producing income standpoint.  

When that person said that, we realized how much power we had to negotiate terms that helped us reach our goals.You can't just take what's being offered when you negotiate.

Just like you would do with any non-family contractor working for you:- get them to complete Form W9 for you, as you will need their SSNs- have them provide receipts for materials/supplies and keep those receipts- have a written labor agreement (how much and for what) - pay for materials separately from labor- make all payments electronically rather than cash so you can trace them- pay out of your business account, not personal- issue them 1099s next year if you paid them $600 or more for labor (for the whole year, not per job): https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/51/topics/1167632-expla...
