100k to make 2k in rent is not too bad as long there’s not major rehab involved you should do alright on this deal

Unless you absolutely know you’ve got something claim “ worthy” I would not get them involved

If they still won't refund me I will have to get my lawyer involved. 

In all of this try to not get involved emotionally.

If you're not so comfortable with yourself, and you feel it may be more beneficial to have the extra support and guidance of an involved partner, then that is the way you should go.

Understand the fees involved and calculate the total cost for an entire year of management so you can compare the different managers.

It harder to find and negotiate deals with enough marging when someone else is involved asking that much in return.

For almost every project we’re involved with we can value-engineer the design and or materials selection so there is NO increase in budget for the project which will ultimately be: safer, healthier, more energy efficient (net-zero being the goal), easier to maintain and insure, and feel more comfortable.Investors, in my opinion, are missing an opportunity by not embracing green.

If you are good at standing your ground, learning your law, developing processes, application screening, studying the market, and all other tasks involved then it may be worth trying it on your own.

Else otherwise, if you by chance get a buyer that buys, you will not get paid because you are not involved in the deal.
