I hate to go that direction, but their negligence has cost us thousands.

Here are some practical steps and strategies to consider:## Single Family and Small Multifamily HomesWhen looking at single-family and small multifamily homes in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin, make sure to analyze the local market trends, rental yields, and property appreciation rates.

I have a small mortgage left on it with around 3.75% rate and I think Chase (mortgage holder) will accept that I modify the deed such that it goes into an LLC. 

There are definitely some hiccups with it being a small company, but I do have to say that their response time on tickets is really fast.  

Large apartment complexes flooded the market with inventory and are offering crazy incentives and amenities that crush the small landlord which can make finding a tenant challenging and often for less than market rent. 

Do you also offer direct booking?

Finally, start small, analyze deals, and build a team to guide you as you gain experience.

And I rescued another small group that thought it was OK to buy these with NO equity or negative equity like we see people doing today they did about 35 of them .. then sold on lease options and those started defaulting left and right and you had a big mess.. they went broke and were lucky to not get criminally charged as the sellers of these got thier credit destroyed. 

Taking small, manageable steps now will help you make informed decisions when you're ready to invest.Good luck!
