Quote from @Gary Gibson: Why not just make it simple enough to outsmart the software?

We really like the simple interface that Rentec Direct has.Most of the services offer a free trial that you can get in and play with them and see how they fit your needs.

If you keep it simple and stay inside the rules, you’ll be fine.

You can keep things simple by having multiple LLCs flow into one S Corp for the flips, and then keep rentals in their own LLCs or grouped by state.

You can do the same with a simple spread sheet.

I work with newer investors who want quick, clear deal guidance so they can move with more confidence.I offer short calls where I walk through numbers, point out risks, and give a simple breakdown of what the deal actually looks like.

Use simple LLCs for rentals and keep them taxed on Schedule E.Big picture: plan flips and rentals as two different “tax buckets”.

Keep lenders and potential LPs warm with a credibility packet: simple story, three past deal snapshots, and your underwriting template.

For many investors, the breakthrough comes from something simple: better underwriting, improved sourcing, stronger teams, or access to capital.What was your game changer when you started becoming consistent?

Could be anything —• A screening question you added• A maintenance workflow that saved you headaches• A tool/software feature you discovered• Something you implemented with tenants that reduced calls• Or even just something simple that improved your sanity 😅I’ll start: For me, adding a required “hold fee” for out-of-state applicants dramatically cut down on last-minute drop-offs.
