@Kale Stephens sounds like you are definitely in the right place. Welcome to BP.

In case you want a fast track on what resources this site has to offer - I've gotten a lot out of listening to their podcasts during my commute.

Then you are in the right place @April Harris! Congrats on your existing MFH and best of luck growing your empire! 

Feel free to reach out if you need anything :)

I agree that you should leave them on! As families (for example) grow and shares in a trust are diluted the more interest all parties have in selling over having to continue to collaborate.

The only thing to stay on top of is how the trust is formed to make sure you're dealing with the right parties when you go to buy. Could get messy and drawn out if you don't research the structure thoroughly from the get-go. A good title company should be able to save you there, though.

Excellent idea! Assuming you're there for three years, that's plenty of time to vet repair vendors and property managers so that if you get different orders down the road you won't have to sell.

Welcome @Collin Roszyk and best of luck!

Welcome to BP @Becky Reid! I'm up in Ft Collins but still going to count us as neighbors! I hope that you find the community as welcoming as I have! 

Don't hesitate to reach out if you need anything.

@Ray Agosto BP is actually partnered with SmartMove so that's a good sign right there. But if you google "free landlord software" or something like that, you will start to get a feel for the options. 
I also recommend searching these forums for similar threads, tenant screening gets talked about a lot.

(Full disclosure: my company does tenant screening)

@Bart Barabas Welcome to BP! You are in the right place to make it happen! 

Definitely keep us posted

@John Place Welcome and congrats on your successful 3-plex! Best of luck!

Welcome to BP @Steven B.! I think your plan to house hack a multi-family is brilliant. And you are in the right place for specific advice. Hope you find the community as supportive as I have!

Best of luck!

Great work! Way to stick with it!
