I work closely with commercial properties and have been seeing a wide range of approaches when it comes to cleaning, especially around tenant turnovers, post-construction cleanups, and recurring maintenance.I’m curious from the ownership and property management side:What tends to be the biggest pain point with cleaning vendors?

Are these all single wide or double wide homes?

Casting too wide a net is usually what leads to analysis paralysis, and what looks great on paper doesn't always translate into a sound long-term investment in real life with peace of mind.From an investment strategy standpoint, you're on the right track by targeting small multifamily.

Any type of income-producing property placed into service after 1986 qualifies for cost segregation, making this tax strategy widely applicable across the real estate spectrum.

Pittsburgh can absolutely make sense as an investment market, especially if you like lower entry prices and solid rent-to-price ratios in B class neighborhoods, because it’s widely known as one of the more affordable housing markets in Pennsylvania and offers relatively low cost of living and acquisition costs, which is why many cash flow focused investors look there.

Hi JamesIt would be helpful to understand the reason for such a wide/mass approach?

CRE financing has a wide spectrum of rates and underwriting criteria.

With the tax-free gain of $500k on a $500k remaining mortgage, I'm considering taking the $1m of tax-free cash and buying some STRs with my LLC as follows:Research indicates 3-5 BR SFH are best near Jay Peak or North Conway, so I could probably acquire x2 STRs with that cash and projecting (based on AirDNA):BALANCE SHEET ($/yr)- INCOME-- TOTAL (annual revenue target): 100k (assuming low end of STR math from this website) - EXPENSES-- taxes = 1% (NH) + 2% (VT) = 15k-- insurance = 0.25% = 2.5k -- PM fees = 20-40% (I'm seeing a wide range - anyone have comps?)

Plenty of interested parties looking to buy, but the buy-bid spread seems to be pretty wide and not a lot transactions occurring. 

In my experience, most pre-packaged “lender lists” are static and widely circulated, which means the data can be outdated or already contacted by many investors.The bigger issue usually isn’t having a list — it’s whether the lenders are currently active in your specific market and still funding deals.I’d be curious to hear from anyone who’s actually used it and closed deals from it.
