There are also traditional construction companies that have a menu of houses they offer, with pricing that is very transparent.I think you will run into fewer problems if you find a company that continually builds one particular design, and just hire them to do what they do. 

G'Day everyone,I never in a million years did I think I'd be writing this but life and business can be funny sometimes.So we hated property management for so long because it's a very "thankless" gig.Tenants complain things aren't getting fixed quickly enough and landlords complain that things cost too much to fix lolAnd the property manager is stuck in the middle.Long story short, we had to set up in-house property management because that was the only way in our opinion to have a successful turnkey operation.Fast forward 10+ years and "what do ya know"We love PM....The residual and predictable income.The recession "proofness" of the business model.The value it offers to both tenants and landlords.And off course the profit margins once you hit an economies of scale standpoint.We have also fine tuned our operation over the years to almost perfection and established ourselves as the #1 rated property manager in Toledo.Systemize, optimize and monetize is what we did.We are now at a point where we could like to focus on mergers and acquisitions.Yep, I kid you not lolI'd like to buy other property management companies that don't know what they are doing just like we didn't I guess for the first 3-4 years.Looking to stay close to home in Toledo to start.I spent some time cold pitching local companies but they are all too proud to reply in their incompetent management style and prefer to continue running a scam.Any advice from other PM owner folks that are more experienced/advanced than we are would be much appreciated.Specifically on how to find an owner interested in selling.Grazie mille for reading and I'm looking forward to your reply 🙏

Lookup the taxes for the property you’re interested in on the country website here:https://icare.co.lucas.oh.us/L...After you look up the address click on “current taxes” on the left menu bar

Couple of reasons:1) My interest hinges on the assumption that starting with a blank canvas and creating the perfect consumer product can optimize your revenue per square foot in a way that offsets high building costs.

Instead of constantly optimizing for the best returns, I want a steady, long-term income stream that I can set up now and benefit from for the rest of my life.When you mention net present value, are you talking about the value of money now vs money in the future?

Obviously a lot of different ways to make money, and make better returns-but my goodness the judgement from some of you that someone doesnt want optimize returns, be a rehabber, landlord, but still invest is rediculous. 

A waiter hands you and menu.

The trigger to sell is when your properties no longer provide optimal cash flow or appreciation - or when your goals or financial/personal situation change.

We have 2 Properties, totalling 5 rental units, that we may want to sell in the next 3-5 months.How can we optimize the value of the cash-out Refi?
