But the reviews of the all the top home warranty companies don't give a good feeling about the practicality of using one including poor service, delayed appointments, multiple visits to fix an issue, keep patching the appliances and systems instead of replacing, offering low replacement costs if they decide to replace, not to mention the tenant frustrations because of these issues.

I know I'm going to have to pay up a bit for that, and if I don't, there are enough other investors and investor groups out there that I'll likely not be competitive in any of my offers.

Yes, it may cost a lot more but being in NY it may offer a lot more margin as well.

I envision this relationship as a two-way street—I'm eager to offer as much value as possible, like identifying potential properties for investment or helping with digital tasks (like websites and social media).I've recently set up my LLC here in South Carolina, but I'm somewhat unsure about the next steps, like where to find private money, locate properties, or structure owner financing for multifamily units.

This week I found and interviewed these guys offering calls staring at $5/hr from the Philippines headed up by an American for Texas maned Mack. https://www.facebook.com/derek.sabal.75 

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator.So, the first question they usually ask a PMC is about fees - instead of asking about services and HOW those services are executed.EXAMPLE: PMC states they will handle tenant screening – what does that specifically mean?

We just offer the same service to everyone regardless of property size.

If you are looking for ways to track/calculate principal and interest payments, you can use loan amortization excel template, plug in the principal amount, loan date, interest rate, and the number of years to pay and it will show you the monthly breakdown/details you need to track the loan.

In many places, giving proper notice that you're not renewing the lease is perfectly acceptable, but specifics vary by location.Another option to consider is "cash for keys," where you offer the tenant a financial incentive to leave early.

I'm running into the same challenges now as a non-accredited, but am making my way through with enough offerings.
