Thanks @Rich Ng, this is great, I love it: "So I take the original 14 day notice and at the bottom, draw a Sign______ Date _____ line."

Up here for the price quoted you could install a small NG Generator that would eliminate all future power issues.  

You have to have a third party mange the money. if you buy real estate with it you have to have a management company manage the property.

I'm not 1099'ng them..... 

hello everyone, I'm having similar problems that I can relate too. my duplex doesn't have split utilities and so I have the temp set at 73.0 degrees. while one of the tenants claims to still be cold she continues to plug up space heater which in turn trips the breaker. then a call is placed to the good old mange yourself landlord. oh that me right, right, to come and reset te breaker.

@Ray Harrell he will need to get his real estate license then if he wants to mange properties , collect rent and lease it. 

You can outsource everything except the communication and still self mange with very little time.

@Patrick Ng - partnerships usually form LLCs (with operating agreements and procedures) and then you acquire the property in that LLC's name using a commercial loan (not conventional).

Thanks for your reply ScottFicek.Is manging the properties a full time job?
