That they are listing, marketing, presenting, pricing, managing in a way that's maximizing revenue potential. 

Having a "legitimate" management company not only helps me operate efficiently but also looks good when presenting to lenders and potential partners.

The key is to find a middle ground where you’re mindful of spending but still allow yourself to enjoy the present.

The benefit with an electronic lock is that if the tenant isn't present you can simply txt them their new PIN so they can enter when they return.

For those looking to invest in a growing and economically stable market, Raleigh-Durham presents a perfect combination of affordability, appreciation potential, and a high demand for housing.

These moves could spur further economic growth in the area, create jobs, and possibly attract more tech investments, all of which could have ripple effects on commercial real estate and local housing markets.For investors, this development could present opportunities in both residential and commercial real estate, especially with the potential influx of new employees and businesses to support these expanding operations.

We're close to many parks (large and smaller), the Lake, Chicago River, transportation, restaurants, shops, groceries, Soldier Field, and a variety of hospitals and universities.My MTR (a private bedroom and bathroom in my 2 bed 2 bath apartment rental where I presently live) does extremely well.

Doing it this way, you would always be present at the property and be able to keep a pulse on all of your tenants.
