Hi AllI am a STR expert but new in the long term rental game.

The "extend and pretend" strategy hopes rates will be lower when the extension period ends.

Hello, Hazem Abdallah, when choosing a company for cold calling, especially in terms of calculating KPIs and ensuring lead quality, it’s important to consider several factors, including their reputation, services, technology, and customer reviews.

This means you have an LLC for a single business activity, which is filed correctly, has an Operating Agreement with clear and precise terms, you set up a separate bank account for that LLC and its related business activity, you do not use that bank account in any way for personal activity, and while it varies per state as being a requirement, you always want to make sure you have periodic filings and to take it even further, hold a "meeting" once a year...even if you're the sole member and there's not much changes that took place for the year. 

Together, we negotiated favorable terms with the seller, ensuring a beneficial deal.

It is less expensive than one year at a good college and 10 times more valuable in terms of the education you will receive.  

My wife and I have 4 long-term rental units and looking for a better way to manage/track expenses/income.

It explains that tenants under lease will adjust at the end of the lease term.

They brought in leases over the budgeted rents and did it just in time for the end of the term.

Your list looks good but as others mentioned it doesn't hurt to think long term and explore refi options as well.
