All a flip does is move a distressed property up to the standard that families actually want to live in.

I see a lot of good projects miss out on financing just because they don’t fit the standard box.

Some online platforms seem questionable.Where do you prefer to find reliable note deals or sellers that follow compliance standards?

The tighter underwriting standards are the only way deals make sense right now, and the affordable housing angle is becoming a real advantage in the current market.

For context, this isn’t the first administrative issue I’ve had with this PM, but it’s definitely the most costly one.I’d really appreciate any guidance from experienced investors or property managers on what’s considered standard practice and what the appropriate expectations should be.Thanks in advance!

The PMs I’m using now refuse to add my contractors to their vendor lists, which makes it hard to verify pricing or maintain the standards I’m used to.Here are the specific issues from some of them (not all PMs) I’ve run into:- They won’t add my contractors to their preferred vendor list.- They charge me for getting estimates, even though PMs typically get them for free because of their volume.- They don’t get second estimates, so I can’t be sure their pricing is competitive.- They won’t visit the property to assess issues in person.- Refused to do rental showings despite written permission from my long-term existing tenant.

I thought they had payment standards per zip code that were essentially market?

we buy distressed debt and Kiavi compared to the others looks like the gold standard.

Corporate clients do tend to have bigger budgets but also expect a higher standard of service and amenities.

When those are handled proactively, the operations can be surprisingly smooth.In terms of performance, the returns are generally much higher of a standard single-family rental, even accounting for higher utilities and cleaning costs.
