Drafted a plan, gathered estimates, created a budget, put together DTI sheets, even got an "as-built" appraisal, and also have it in a permit status at the Local Building and safety office.Then I started to look into the construction loan and the permanent financing....to do it myself, and not through a builder.I soon realized that there are sooo many companies out there that want to try to help...but cant  (some of them were even on this network of people):  don't have builds on record, won't allow for owner-built homes, my credit is less than 680, while carrying the construction loan, there may be a point at the end where because i have my rental house while building that it become hard to pay, and  I can't pull out a private loan to help start process because my credit cards balances are horrible...and my "business" has no show of income.So, now we are here in the present time....   

Yearly net cashflow after absolutely all costs and a margin of safety should be between $15,000 - $20,000.Lessons learned?

The biggest hurdles, obstacles, and challenges in life that limit your belief and mental structure in no particular order:1)Thinking where you start is where you finish.2)People resting or stopping in the middle, not at the end. 3)Prioritizing instant gratification rather than delayed gratification4)The controversial mark twain  quote or not quote--It ain't what you don't know that gets you in trouble, it's what you know that ain't so.5) The lack of an ability to move on.6) Not appreciating the power of delegation.There's probably 2-3 others I am missing, but over time these have rang so true in any instance I have faced in life.

If you're considering a significant investment in smart locks, I strongly recommend exploring alternative options that prioritize both convenience and reliability.

@Bruce Lynn, while I am guessing because I don't know "most" large multifamily, I would say it is very much manager dependent and likely to become more common place as many syndicators are struggling to make their mortgage payments.Ownership companies are still run by people, and people that don't have enough money to pay their bills will start prioritizing who to pay based on the perceived risks of not paying.As for taking over any outstanding bills, that is one of many issues of the common LLC transfer.
