Here are a few things to keep in mind:Eviction Process: Courts often prioritize tenant rights, and during certain times of year (like the winter months), it’s tougher to get an eviction through.Legal Barriers: If the property is rent-stabilized or the tenants have protections, it could mean additional layers of complexity. 

When analyzing a deal, the expenses data available (opex, vacancy, PM, capex, etc.) is at the time of purchase.

Quality over quantity.7.Master Delegation and Automation: PM is a complex industry with many moving parts—marketing, maintenance, leasing, screening, and more.
