There is usually some overlap between DSCR loan programs but a lot of variation because generally each DSCR loan provider has their own DSCR loan guidelines that they are using and underwriting to and guaranteeing the loan and borrower satisfy these guidelines to to sell these loans to investors.

Real estate and public market risks have very little overlap.

If you’ve evaluated them, what specifically caused you to pass (overlap with PMS, cleaner SOPs, insurance redundancy, etc.)?

In my area there are overlapping municipalities and it is extremely confusing. 

At that point, keeping them just to “get through the move-out” actually increases your risk, not reduces it.Overlap is better than a clean breakThe ideal move is to:• Give notice now per the contract• Line up a new PM immediately• Have the new PM take over before or at move-outEven a 2–3 week overlap is worth it so inspections, pest control, and turn planning are done correctly.Security deposit control mattersCheck your management agreement closely:• Who legally holds the deposit?

Just curious if people are seeing overlapping reasons.

Sounds like we have a lot of overlapping goals, Kenneth Garrett!

Usually easier to replicate and easier to exit.On who to get advice from:You want someone who sits at the overlap of:• Active investor (not just an agent)• Familiar with ADUs, STR rules, and local zoning• Comfortable modeling both cash flow and refi outcomes• Actually owns similar assets, not just advising on themA local investor-operator or small multifamily-focused broker who owns property will usually give you better guidance than a pure architect or agent alone.One final thought: custom projects can juice returns, but clean acquisitions tend to scale cleaner.

These businesses do not have great overlapping synergies and RAD does not have a reputation for being good at any of them. 

You’re right , functionally, there’s a lot of overlap with what many firms call an Acquisitions Manager or in-house buyer.Where I see the distinction isn’t the tasks, it’s the structure and incentives.
