Most investors look at their numbers once a year — usually when their CPA asks for them in March.By then, it’s too late to make changes.The best investors I’ve worked with — the ones who always seem one step ahead — have a habit I call the Quarterly Check-In.Every 3 months, they:- Review income and expenses for each property.- Check if their financing or insurance still makes sense.- Plan upcoming repairs or improvements before they become emergencies.- Look at their tax position and make small moves early — instead of big ones in a panic later.It doesn’t take long.

He refuses to do ZELLE or Cashiers checks. he has gotten multiple 5 days to pay or vacate notices in the calendar year. recently he has not paid rent for October and November and has not answered a text, call or email, since October 10th. 

Make sure sending the notice is legal that way in your state. 

If you are ready to turn the units and "get to gettin" on the rehab side then I'd consult a local attorney but general giving a formal final notice to stop smoking in unit and that any damages or costs associated with remedying the unit are going to be billed to them. 

I’ve been talking with a lot of active investors lately who are noticing how much the funding landscape has shifted.

You’re already ahead by owning and renting out two properties.

If I do go this route, I will obviously give the current management company notice (after reviewing the contract), but are there challenges to be mindful of when switching Property Management companies from afar?

I’ve noticed a shift in how a lot of investors are structuring deals lately.
