Make your property hard to rob and the tenants feel safe by adding in physical security deterrence, lights, fence, ADT sign, a caution sign for a dog, cameras, etc.Hope that helps, good luck!

Use a person that has developed software that is a full course and gives complete information like someone like Kent Clothier, Ross Hamilton, john jackson, Josh Cantwell, etc. who seem like they know the right way.Good luck to you!

The part I like is the security of having 30 year fixed rate loans at ~5%. 

Wondering what management software you all are using and why? 

The loan is secured by the main home.

An investor who accepted to help me get started, asked me to put up the money for the repair on a property that is already purchased (I am not on the deed or title) for a return of 50% of the money I put in (after the property is repaired and sold) and When I asked, what's my security on the money I pay, I was told that we will be signing an affidavit of interest in real property.

We are looking for a cloud based (hard wired) security system for a mid-sized apartment building.

Our initial financing fell through and we had to scramble to secure backup financing.

One can easily borrow a million bucks against their securities for around 3 pts.

I did not offer any compensating factors like a cosigner or double the security deposit.
