Someone from Memphis Invest made sure I was getting routine updates about the property, checking that I had my mortgage paperwork moving along, and confirming that I had inspections done.  

I am a software developer by trade and am blessed to have an excellent career with a decent salary that leaves me with some disposable income that I'm hoping to put into some smart investments to generate passive income.

Someone who's ready with financing, or someone who still waiting to  confirm it ?

What about certain software or apps?

Make sure you run your number to confirm the property can carry the debt service costs.Once a month is more than enough to be on site, make sure the management company doesn't let things go and that can be a nice trip to take with your dad to go see the property (unless you were involved all these years, you'll need his experience to identify things that might need attention and are not taken care of).On top of the on-site visit, schedule a weekly meeting (can be a web session like Zoom or GoToMeeting) with the PM to go over the property status and the finances.Lastly, I'd install security cameras on the properties so you can check in remotely at random times and see what's going on at the property.Once again, this is just what I would do and as I said in my previous post, I'd start all that with a meeting with an estate lawyer and a CPA.

Anyone know better software for real estate analysis?

Hi All,New-ish real estate investor (I have a couple of buy-and-holds and am working on my first multifamily deal) and erstwhile software developer here.  

Trying to use H&R Block software but it will not let me enter 0 days rented in the interface so I currently have entered 58 which is the number of days of ownership. 

I am a do it your self kind of person and currently using H&R Block tax software to prepare my tax documents for this year.

I finally spoke to the Housing Dept who confirmed what I already knew.
