(search her posts here on BP, look up her personal website/blog for the success story.Or here's three successes I enjoyed reading about...using BRRRR (Two did it solo as couples, One admittedly used a partner).....see if you get additional inspiration from their success of @Joshua D. , @William Collins and @Austin Fruechting did in 5, 2.5 years and 7 years, respectively, buy using BRRRR (Austin was also featured in BP Podcast #239)https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/223/topics/459415-500k-net-worth-in-5-years-im-30-today?

I like to see how different people dress, notice their attitudes, and see the way the children behave.

Name.. date of birth... minor...Any children are occupants.. so 3 adults and 1 child is 4 people.. so if your occupancy is set for 3 people the child would make them over occupancy and they would not qualify for the house.Set occupancy level and make sure they know they can not add another person to lease unless someone would move out and that the new person would have to be screened and qualifyCO signers make no sense in this.. 

Listen what I would do is drive around the neighborhood you can afford around 6pm if the bus stops have lots of people making there way from work there is one money to be made and two a community of decent ppl there I'm not sure if u have children if not living in a bad neighborhood isn't always as bad as it seems besides the money you collect in a year or two may propel you toward your real aspirations faster than not making the move and no matter where you buy your choosing the tenant so set a base line of what you will and won't accept and stick to it people live in Baltimore, New York, New Jersey all places that once where **** holes that have taken some major steps toward change but more importantly they made a big bag of money from those horrible hoods

I personally like the location b/c of the accessibility, close to the children's museum and my other properties around the city. 

Railing to keep it away from children, drunks... 2.

After closing, myself and brother (his children) are quitclaimed and added as joint tenants (lender is fine with this).

Specifically with children and obviously drinking.

It really helps to keep me inspired and motivated.  

In our case, it was a young professional family with 1-2 children and maybe a dog who care about high quality schooling and a family-friendly home and neighborhood.
