I guess what i'm trying to say is that we all have fears but you shouldn't let it prevent you from NOT doing something.

Most properties I see don’t have active security, just cameras that record.For owners and managers here...Do you feel cameras alone are enough to prevent issues after hours, or do they mostly help after something already happened?

Transparency up front prevents future family conflicts.

Treat inspections like preventive maintenance, not a test.Inspections aren’t surprises.

Youre right, the strategy of "buy, borrow, die" is nothing new although I have rarely seen anyone go into detail of how to actually implement the concept as a portfolio strategy beyond the typical "1031 exchange" advice to avoid taxes.

There’s no true “hack” to avoid taxes on flips, since they’re usually treated as ordinary income and often subject to self-employment tax, but good planning can prevent getting crushed. 

I'd frame it as a safety and prevention rather than just cleanliness.

I need to resolve this account issue ASAP to prevent that kind of fraud!

The owners who I observe to succeed in the long run are dependent mostly on stringent tenant screening, clear house regulations, auto-pay on a weekly basis and either a strong local manager or boots on the ground support to prevent minor issues from escalating into major ones.

Yea, I can't go too far into the details, but we do try to prevent people spamming over and over again.
