The commission on DSTs are almost always the same as a regular real estate deal.

., and as investors we all deal with them regularly, so why not share with each other our experiences and with whom, so that we might all have a source of information, allowing us the ability to know what company or who is and is not conducting business 'above board', honestly and fairly? 

I'm a long-time real estate investor and a friend of mine regularly asks me about strategies for him to get in on this market.

Really motivating to see how regular people can achieve their financial goals through real estate investing.

He/she can also manage several projects at the same time that are not necessarily being done by the same GC.Each GC must be licensed and insured and will be responsible for pulling all permits and hiring/managing their employees and subs.Some of the CPM responsibilities would be scheduling, budgeting, selecting finishes and meeting up with GC in a regular basis.

@Gita Faust Thank you, the IRS list is shorter than the amount of things @Jeff Kehl listed but I'm assuming the IRS classifies a lot of that stuff in the same category ie; Roofing, Plumbing, Ground Maintenance = Repairs to the IRS.I'm really trying to get a grasp on the monthly numbers to see if this particular property I'm looking at is worth my while, but all this definitely helps.Also does quickbooks online or the regular version have a property management software integrated, I currently use Appfolio at my PM job.
