Something that integrates smoothly?

Hope they both go smoothly for you.David

Now that Apartments.com has finished their acquisition it is running pretty smoothly overall and does everything you'd want it to do for .  .

It was definitely more difficult at moments not being able to get into your car and drive to the property but once you set up a good team in the area youre investing in (realtor, banker, handyman etc) things go very nice and smooth.

Bank and BOA and both went super smooth.

Our firm has done many deals in the past with our own capital however we are now looking at taking down multifamily deals with limited partners for the first time, especially as our portfolio is pretty illiquid at the moment.I myself as executive officer am doing everything I possibly can to make sure I learn about every nuance of the syndication process to make sure things go smoothly before even thinking about submitting any LOIs.

it is just not possible to find a property on Zillow that looks nice, buy it, and expect things to go smoothly and for you to cash flow that $300 a month that Brandon Turner promised us back in 2016.for a really thoughtful thread on this exact topic, see this:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/48/topics/1159104-overl...i'd also encourage you to house hack in CA. 

Again house is on a slab so was smooth concrete where affected flooring was removed.  

I actually decided to continue investing in Charlotte for now, we are in the middle of picking up couple more and for me the numbers make sense, I know the area better and the team I have in place has consistently done a solid job.Honestly, I know I need to diversify areas but the more I look around the more I continue to like North Carolina so maybe I could be missing out but in the long run I admit I just like the area.Thanks again, you are a great writer, much thanks for all your posts!

Hope the project goes as smoothly as possible!
