Also of all the prospects that call we rarely if ever get one calling "wanting" to move to the OKC public schools areas.

Hello,In continuing research into the different neighborhoods I'm Columbus any locals or investors have any opinions on area grading, tenant pool, appreciation prospects/ capital improvements planned in the Whitehall, Hilltop, Franklinton and the North/ South Linden.Thank you

I will think of a couple titles but I would actually go outside of the mechanics of CRE and focus more on prospecting and sales or you will just be a really great analyst working for a producer.   

I have a prospective tenant that filled out an application.However I need some advice on qualifying this individual.The current rent is 3600The applicant is a family The Spouse doesnt work The main applicant gross W2 income is around $10000 monthThe monthly net income is $5700No car loan's No credit cards balancesThey pay $800 month on a personal loan.Since a rent check is written after net income is received.

If your area has great prospects for cash flowing properties - lets go ahead with that strategy.

I'm starting out with relatively low capital and as I start honing in on prospects, I'm just now realizing that I haven't yet calculated closing costs into any of my deal analysis.

In my case, at the end of their lease when I wanted to show the property to prospective long term tenants, the tenant gave me all kinds of grief about 'invading her privacy' and 'disrupting her life' even though I told her at the beginning of the lease that this was our procedure and I made every attempt to 1) give 48 hr lead times, when typically I would only give 24, and 2) blocked/scheduled showings for 1 day per week and 1 weekend day away from dinner time/church times, etc. maybe this was just the person I was dealing with though...- vet the tenant exactly as you would for a normal tenant.

Many require RFPs from the prospective landlords.

I want to check on the loan prospects for buying the land.

Isn't that giving them too much credit for future prospects?
