-What is the best way to calculate and keep track of all expenses and cash flow both monthly and yearly for each property?

Don't stress, multi-family can be a difficult market for newcomers.

Hello Everyone,I am a new member living in Columbus, OH hoping to begin connecting with the BP community and taking steps towards investing in a multi-family property in the area. 

I have owned a couple of multi-family properties in the past and loved it but took a break to focus on the kiddos.

Good Afternoon BP,I'm looking into building storage units in the basement of a 10 unit multi-family I own/manage and wanted to hear if anyone has done this and would be open to sharing some advice. 

Is it a multi family or SFR?

I’d probably share in your concern in the single-family or small multi space, where the principals of the management company might also be the ones showing units, taking calls from prospects and making leasing decisions.In the large multi space, they probably wouldn’t steer residents to properties owned by the management company.

When maintenance is done on a building for a client, I would like to keep track of each issue for th lot that I own.

This makes it hard to cash flow unless you can find a multi family with a great price point.

@Christopher Veljkovic My end goal is to own a couple of large multi family residential properties, however I plan to start small but definitely with 5+ units.
