Being able to quickly run cash flow, cap rates, and ARV analysis lets us evaluate deals efficiently and see the financial picture clearly before stepping foot in the property.3.

You’re right that this isn’t really a checklist item, but once a tenant reports air infiltration, it becomes a habitability and efficiency issue especially in winter.

The seller wanted a straightforward, as-is transaction, which allowed negotiations to remain clean and efficient.

Another thing that you can do is provide your rental criteria up front and I also have a handout that talks about What to Expect From Working With Us and it spells out our expectations for a respectful relationship with our tenants where good communication is key.

I can't really seem to figure out a process of how to do this safely and efficiently (showings/screenings/background checks) when out of state investing. 

When you systemize them, rent stays consistent and stress disappears.Here’s how we manage it efficiently across a growing portfolio:1.

That efficiency adds real dollars back to the owner’s bottom line.

I'd like an option to list it as receiving zero rent, which would help communicate vacancy status clearly to owners.My question is...

Explain how you do things - leases, marketing for leases, general operations & structure - how y’all do inspections & if included in your fees, what you will provide on an ongoing basis (platform reports, placeholder for tenants to call & submit maintenance requests, take payments, handle communications, late payments, occasional drive by’s to check on place, handle evictions, move ins & outs, turnovers & make ready’s).

VRBO and Airbnb have all the basic communications that I use.
