When the landlord/tenant laws make it difficult to conduct business (examples include LA, NY, and SF).

Thats not including vacancy/repairs etc.

Over the next couple of years, we plan to acquire and develop multiple properties — starting with a 4-unit and scaling up from there.I bring 15+ years in corporate America, including work in M&A, strategy, project management, finance, operations, and risk.

Hi Gin,First, It's important to note that as a technical legal matter, "land trust" are not statutorily recognized in most states, including in CA.

And, I didn't include any additional padding for inflation!

So, I’m all in for about $142,000.I then sold the “business only” including equipment, etc.

Some cool benefits include expense tracking (per property), the Lease Indiciation Tool (helps predict the likelihood of a tenant renewing the lease giving you the chance to renew early and/or increase monthly rent if you know someone wants to renew), Tenant Communication (via their app), Maintenance Requests, Tenant Payments, and more.

This gives me more money to add to my" snowball method" if I choose, or to handle emergencies in the meantime that can be cashflowed.I am currently dealing with a TVM scenario between a house that is currently listed as a flip and one that is almost finished that we planned to buy and hold.

"Closing costs" could include anything.
