Frequently asked questions
What exactly do I buy?
A single-family home in Jackson, Mississippi, in your own name or your LLC’s, with a recorded deed. You are not buying a share of a fund. Most homes are already leased; vacant homes are leased by our team after closing.
Do I have to use BNL to manage the property?
No. Management is optional and the agreement can be cancelled with 30 days’ notice. Most remote owners keep us because we already know the home, the tenant and the vendors.
Are the returns guaranteed?
No. Every listing shows three scenarios built from stated assumptions, and real taxes and insurance whenever we have them. Real results will differ from any projection.
Can I buy with a self-directed IRA?
Yes, through your IRA custodian, usually as an all-cash purchase. IRA rules prohibit dealing with yourself or close family members and personal guarantees on loans; confirm details with your custodian and tax advisor.
Can I finance the purchase?
Some buyers use DSCR loans. Many lenders have minimum loan amounts of $75,000–$100,000, so homes under about $100,000 are usually bought with cash. We can introduce lenders but do not arrange financing.
How do I check a home from another state?
You receive the Investor Property Package: photos, an unedited walkthrough video, inspection, renovation scope and invoices, lease and payment history (tenant details redacted), tax bill and insurance quote. You can hire your own inspector and appraiser.
What does management cost?
The fee is a percentage of collected rent plus a leasing fee when a new tenant is placed. The exact terms are in the management agreement included with every package.
How do I see how my property is doing?
Owners get a private portal with monthly statements, rent and expense history, documents, taxes and distributions.
