You need to manage your vendors TIGHTLY and just because you expect them to do their job well doesn't mean they will, you have to motivate them or choose your lender better. ineptitude =/= scam. as for the low appraisal, sounds like they did a digital benchtop appraisal which they probably want to come in low to save them the risk exposure.

There are many good ones with a presence on these forums who can provide you with a ready to go investment property that will cash flow for you on day one.

That is simply a failsafe if the digital locks ever fail.

We don't want our clients to do anything (and, word to the wise: the clients that want to get involved are going to be a problem).We also have a one-time on-boarding fee of $899 that covers professional photography, physical and digital guest books, and all the other time our team spends getting a place ready.Discounting your services for your friends is a mistake for a lot of reasons.
