I'm not here to debate, complain, or anything else.I simply shared my experience to help the poster, that is all.

Some of your requirements come across harsh.

This simply means you have language in your lease that states the landlord is responsible for paying utilities up to a certain $ amount (let's say $100 for the sake of argument).

Denver is very expensive for a new guy who doesn't have loads of capital so a market like Missouri for example is intriguing for far cheaper real estate but then Id either have to move, improve the property remotely or simply buy and hold as a rental for X time. 

Jay what you've got to understand about Josh is the fact he is simply lying.  

You'll need more capital and most will require a personal guarantee and personal financial backing. 

Another must have requirement is to have positive cash flow.

@Brady Bitter these funds have margin requirements. 

Being a flipper for the last 10 years (always part time), there is simply a mismatch here.

So an identical neighborhood (income, crime, school quality, etc.) can cost you as much as a $100k less on the South side simply because your neighbors are brown or black as opposed to white.this right here is the gem advice.
