Vivint has been incredibly discrete and secretive with giving us any information, and literally will not transfer me from the one person we have been dealing with.

If you are only getting $35 a night, for a whole place, that seems incredibly cheap.

Callrail and Mojosells are different beasts entirely - but both offer incredible opportunity to grow your business and can be used together or separately.Callrail is a phone tracking and routing system that works primarily with inbound calls.Mojosells is a multi-line dialer that will leverage your time with outbound calls. 

It is indeed unfortunate that the seller had not vacated the house as agreed upon in the temporary occupancy agreement; as most investors know, not only does the market produce distressed homes, it often produces sellers in distressed situations.

so you have two buildings essentially next to each other but one has the added expense of sewer (NOT CHEAP)...the 1/50% rule may cause you to over look a good buy.finally, on your "if" points (if i get the prop for $XXXX and if i can increase rents) remember you should only pay for what the property is currently producing not what it could be producing.  

However how about you consider investing that money into a real estate Syndication which will find a property to invest your money in, produce and collect rents for you and give you the benefit of any appreciation of the property(ies) your money was used to purchase and also provide you with property management all in one package.

There probably should be negative CAP rates though, for the midwest, F class, multifamily pigs that produce negative NOI and should pay somebody to take off their hands if not for the newbs from CA who think they hit the jackpot in finding such a "great deal" by buying a property for less than some pay for a car. 

In my experience, in my market, a long-term rental requires far less effort and generally produces a better return.Many people brag about how much they make with their vacation rental but they fail (or refuse) to share the complete numbers.

You've done everything wrong so far, AND you are in an incredibly tenant friendly state.

If you were to buy five houses at 20% down that each produced 1,000/mo you would be at 5,000/mo.
