Here are a few ways I use them for long-term rentals:Tenant Communication: handling inbound calls, screening applications, scheduling showings, and following up.Property Management Support: coordinating with contractors, managing maintenance logs, and tracking work orders.Back-Office Work: bookkeeping, updating QuickBooks, rent collection records, and reporting.Marketing & Listings: creating property listings, posting on rental sites, and monitoring inquiries.The biggest success comes from training them on your exact systems, not expecting them to build it for you.

They’re not the most exciting read, but I’ve caught early signs of zoning changes and policy shifts that could impact operations down the line.Market Tools (Rentometer, AirDNA): I don’t rely on any one tool, but using them in combination helps create a baseline for rent comps, particularly when weighing LTR potential against STR or MTR models.Local Investor Conversations: Whether it’s chats here on BP or catching up with other Phoenix-area investors over coffee, these casual conversations often surface key info—like permitting updates or changes in code enforcement—that’s not always widely published.Refining Internal Processes: I’ve been reviewing and tightening up our PM workflows—everything from tenant communication to maintenance tracking and lease renewals.

No obvious structural issues from the listing, but the age suggests surprises are likely.Rehab Budget: • Low estimate = $50K (light updates) • More realistic = $75K (new kitchens/baths, flooring, paint, code updates) • High end = $100K+ if major systems need replacingRents (CMA comps): • 1BRs: ~$1,400–$1,750 each (https://prnt.sc/RMm854WPuPdk) • Stabilized Gross Rent: ~$4,200–$5,250/mo (~$50K–$63K/yr)Cap Rate: ~9% if rehab stays in the $50K–$75K range, falls closer to 7–8% if it pushes past $125KConstraints:FHA 203k requires me to live in one unit for 12 months, so only 2 units would generate rent in Year 1.With 2 units rented, cash flow looks negative (~–$600 to –$900/mo).With all 3 units rented after Year 1, cash flow flips positive (+$600–$800/mo) and grows with rent increases.My Question:For anyone who’s done a 203k or similar triplex rehab — does ~$75K sound realistic for getting this building into clean, rentable condition (floors, paint, kitchens, baths, basic systems)?
