I've been mostly collecting the rent from money orders, square soft from my phone, and occasionally in cash to a small few (I know tisk tisk).Any help, ideas, and strategies would be gratefully appreciated. 

Maybe $180 to $250 /SF, including soft costs, but excluding land is not so good? 

Bookings were soft in December and January.

In short sentence, you research what the market rent is for your property by seeing similar Bedrooms, Bathrooms and Soft. properties are renting for.

We were still fairly inexperienced at that point, and when the tenant moved out, the rental market was a bit soft and we would have had to lower the rent.

They said consensus across all the major banks was lower rates for a “soft landing” as growth slows .

The small multifamily market is the only segment of residential in San Antonio that seems to be showing a tiny bit of softness so far.

Price points are a fraction of what you'll find in other beach markets like Florida, making Myrtle Beach and the surrounding areas a nice soft place to get started.

Just explain there are hard AND soft costs in the $275k.

@Lisa Sluss reasonably others suggested a cash out refi on the rental with an asset based 30 yr rental lender, called, portfolio, soft money, some here called dscr based lenders.One such lender is finance america, Lima one.
