But first off, the myths and horror stories behind pits are heavily overreacted and i encourage you to do reaearch to justify your desicion.

I live in Ohio, so it was snowing heavily and bitter cold.  

Look up Don Beck http://www.donaldpbeck.com/ for a lease that is heavily used by the DIG members in SE PA.

Awesome responses, typically don't lean heavily towards any one side but it sounds like theoretically SLT sounded like a great idea but that'll be put to rest with regulation. 

As you may know, SF is a heavily rent controlled city.

I haven't done any lease options yet, what I've found is that owners don't love lease options because they favor the buyer so heavily, but we have done deals with year-long escrows with the buyer taking possession early and renting, sellers usually go for that more so over lease options, that usually works better.

Hi, I am buying a new rental property out of state and will be relying heavily on a property management to run daily operations for me.There are tenants already in the property and a property manager in place that the seller is currently using.Should I just continue with the same management company (considering the tenants are familiar with them) or use my agent as the new property manager (since he knows the property well and I have worked with him closely for a month now) or look for a completely fresh property management .Can someone please help me understand what’s the best thing to go with??
