I have been struggling finding fair priced reliable contractors in my area.

@Matt Meier congrats on finding a great deal!

Next, speak with a lender and find out what you can afford.

You find distressed properties and sell the contracts to investors for a fee.Partnering: Partner with investors who have capital.

Good luck, and I hope you find the perfect roommate!

Find local meetups, rub elbows with other investors, find out what they need, and then find a way to meet that need.For example, maybe an investor is growing fast and struggling to keep up with inspections.

@Nick Am Setting up a management S-Corp (LLC-B) to manage properties owned by your LLC (LLC-A) can provide tax benefits like retirement contributions, payroll tax optimization, and deductible expenses (e.g., home office, health insurance).

Hi Amanda,If they are trouble tenant then you should probably provide them whatever the notice period is in the current lease and just have them move out. 

I have a tenant who lives in my very nice three bedroom unit whose lease provides a pet authorization for “one dog, one cat and one rabbit.”
