They truly value customer service and make purchasing homes a seamless process.

Recently several people I know in the real estate arena are looking for additional cash flow opportunities and one area is in the area of e-commerce - there are several real estate gurus out there who are now pitching automated online stores.The premise - pay an up front fee of between $25,000 to $40,000 for their team to help you - set up your company, establish a credit card to buy product, build your online store and presence, research products, place them and market them on your store, sell them before you buy them, then using your credit and credit card, they buy them and fulfill the order to the customer. 

Tenant C is only one that is actually paying since March but has many "customers" coming in and out his unit lately. 

Ideally, it could be a long term buy and hold, where the asset is continually refinanced, cash is pulled out, but you are not creating a taxable event.Full disclosure btw.

While you'll see a significant dip in NOI by transitioning to tenant-owned homes you'll be able to justify a lower terminal cap rate and ideally higher exit valuation. 

I'm thinking that 4 people sharing one bathroom is not ideal but want to know if anyone has done it before and their experience.

Ideally covid-conscious coffee somewhere but zoom or just some dm's work great as well (I'd pay for the coffee :D)! 

In terms of why some are better than others, a lot of it comes down to customer service.

Rent Pick up - I know it's not ideal.

You are their customer.
