A caveat to this, is that you then can't complain that they take forever to find tenants, so you need to find a sweet spot of protection and resonableness; otherwise your next post is going to be 'My PM can't fill my units'. 3) You need to re-visit your property insurance and what is and is not covered and adjust accordingly. 4) I'm not saying you don't have grounds to pursue your management company, I'm just saying that nothing that was posted here is grounds to do so, it would quickly get dimissed.

Of all the attorneys I worked with and are friends with, they all told me their court submission is short sweet to the point, and they bring all the other evidence with them to court but only show when judge asks for additional evidence/info.

I made this same mistake when I went to buy "Sweet" Corn for the dinner I threw last time I was there.  5 ears for $10. 

The way you put it - whether they’re 50% as effective as me or more - still buys back a huge chunk of time.And I have to admit, the thought of someone managing my properties and picking up lunch does sound like a pretty sweet deal.

Gotta find a sweet AirBnB now.  

Very sweet and generous women who also has the goal to leave all her daughters with a cash flowing ADU or property.

I invest in the Midwest where prices are still pretty reasonable compared to rents, and I’ve found that balance between cash flow and long-term stability to be the sweet spot.

What I’ve noticed is that the returns don’t always scale proportionally with price, and there definitely seems to be a “sweet spot” where demand, occupancy, and operational risk all balance out.

if your a new RE investor hoping to use a conventional, fha, or va loan then DTI is important.I think experienced RE investors are not usually impacted by DTI.My RE debt is ~60 times my yearly income or using your formula is 483% (over 10 times higher than OP indicated as the sweet spot).  

A lot of investors I know in similar positions have found the hybrid model to be the sweet spot: outsource leasing/renewals since that’s where student rentals can really eat up time, but keep CapEx/maintenance oversight in-house to protect margins.
