Does anyone have a template or method that they use in order to screen tenants effectively in order to reduce the risk of non payment and damage to the property? 

Seeing a lot of borrowers have success across the country, especially with the BRRRR method and the AirbnBRRRR methods! 

Also, it often helps to connect with a local agent/do extensive due diligence on renovated/new construction properties to see what the property may sell for or appraise for (if doing BRRRR method) as that can impact the price you should pay.

I've been thinking a lot about Florida and I believe it's a great state for future potential investments such as purchasing and renting out (utilizing the BRRRR Method Of Course).

My thought is that the people that ARE using it for lead gen/outreach, automation etc. will keep the methods to themselves until the advantage of early adoption is done and that business segment is saturated, then they will sell courses to everybody else..
