Proximity to light rail, Broad street NJ transit plus most of the city center development is moving that way.

Keep in mind syndication is soup D Jour these days.. anytime you have how to syndicate guru's selling systems and training you know they are going for the mass's and not everyone frankly can be that IE a good operator.the two I tagged I know are experienced if they care to engage .. and I know there are plenty of others on BP I just happened to know these two personally. 

I’m specifically inquiring about how to explain to them the transition from the current rent collection strategy used by the PM company to the rent collection tool offered by Cozy (which is not technically a legal lease agreement).

Hi Ed, We're a full service property management company based in central Mass.

Your understanding of the realities of house hacking here will help make that transition a lot easier on you.

It scales down over the short term (like during a transition from consulting to investing), but it doesn't easily scale down long term. 

Collected rent gets applied to the invoice...and any remaining invoice balance during resident transitions goes to vacancy loss (apply a manual credit to the invoice...puts it on the P&L).This is done in Xero, which will not be a property management tool, but maybe the process can be replicated in Buildium.

To summarize, it seems possible to get a quicker loan through commercial lender rather than the transitional mortgage refi route.

I’m looking to transition one home immediately to a property management group, then possibly the other two as their leases expire.

I'm looking to start with Ranch Style Brick SFH (as boring and practical as possible) and purchase one per year for 5 years before transitioning into multi-family, can't wait to get the ball rolling!
