I learned that I really enjoy originating notes and thought my services could prove profitable to other investors.I would like to start a full-service business where I help landlords convert their rental properties into low-effort and profitable notes.

Some settling of a property is to be expected but if it significant enough to be causing issues such as slanted floors, door openings not being square, windows that won't open, etc.

If it helps, I live in Philly and am thinking about B Class areas- SFH & MF properties.

For multifamily investments, using the LLC name is typically sufficient for legal and banking purposes, as advised by your CPA and banker.A DBA may be useful if you want a separate brand or manage multiple properties under different names, but it’s not required for most investors.

For those already investing in commercial or multi-family properties, what strategies have worked best for you?

I'd love to get info/opinions on whether there is a "standard" amount of time to increase rents in the Bay Area for Single Family Homes.How do property management companies/landlords handle rent increases for existing renters? 

Instead of going one property at a time, this can save investors a ton of time. 

Hi Jason,Depending on the property size there is different software.

Another thing to note, certain renovation costs can be eligible for Qualified Improvement Property (QIP).

My wife and I purchased our first rental property here in Maui in June of 2023 to use as an STR as it was a consistent market, numbers worked, and we live 5 minutes away from the property so self-managing made sense!
