Good Evening @Chris Seveney. Was the webinar rescheduled or cancelled?  I signed up but still waiting to enter the zoom meeting.

Sam,
I have purchased two homes in Memphis (my original hometown) using realtor Daphne Battle. She can be reached at 901-233-4487. I was very happy with the units she recommended. She also vetted the current tenants who came along with the units and things have been working well for the past 3-4 years...knock on wood!

Handy-Works Rodney Myers He can be reached using [REMOVED]. Good Luck!

Grant,

Yes, I've been in the area since 1997. We have 2 properties in the Buckroe area and will be closing on one in Fox Hill this week.

Welcome Grant. You may want to check out VA Peninsula Real Estate Investors Association. They meet once a month at Peking International Buffet

55 Town Center Way
Hampton, VA 23666 The next meeting is Dec 12 6pm.

Thanks for the post.! Great inspiring story!

Thanks Chris. I was able to find someone using Angie's list. I will keep you in mind if things don't work out.

Tinotenda,

Make sure everyone is on board with what will happen to the existing security deposit. Will you have the previous owner deposit into your account at closing? Will the tenant receive their deposit from the previous owner and then be responsible for submitting a deposit to you? I've purchased 2 tenant occupied rentals (with the help of an excellent realtor) and was lucky the previous owner didn't try to leave with the tenants deposit since it was something I hadn't originally considered. Good Luck!

Thanks Jean. I didn't realize it was that reasonable. I will be checking into it real soon.

Any recommendations for a reliable repair company from the Memphis TN area? I currently own 2 rentals in that area. I was using Handyman Connection but just found out they went out of business. The company should be capable of conducting minor repairs and routine maintenance. Having a website and the ability to communicate via email is a definite plus. Thanks in advance BP!
