but you have to be living under a rock to not understand why insurance companies don't allow them.I had a German Shepard one of my favorite that I have owned over the years.. she bit someone on the butt who walked into our house un announced and then turn ran and screamed..

Getting your own license means that you will knowingly hire a bloody rookie.Most people think being licensed is the magic thing; the state exam will actually teach you very little useful stuff and when you start you realize how little you know.

When you mentioned weather/insurance related issues that screamed Florida which I am shying away from. 

Bottom line HIGH Risk activity with some good upside . keep in mind every market has their pros your going to be up against.. there are no screaming deals that no one bids on unless its war zone junk. 

@Devin Hightower your stated goal is to get to 12k a month in passive income, but your strategy is going to take you several decades unless you are getting screaming good deals.

Also, If the rent they are asking @ $600 is below market value and the property is only $47k that seems like a screaming deal at first glance.

First, it screams novice.

:@Sami Grenthe extended stay ended today, and they are screaming that they can only move in to their new apartment on the 1st, so they will move out tomorrow after work...

You won't send out a few letters and get a screaming deal in most cases. 

Not to mention that a lot of the major markets surrounding Utah are way more expensive so in comparison, Utah has some screaming deals for both investors and the working class.
