Listening to Jerryll's video filled in more blanks for me in terms of marketing.

RDPD was the lightbulb for me as well.

Form an LLC where the property is located or where you live.

Lyons was a family name and I guess my email entry form set up my user name slightly.

I do think you need a separate entrance option or at least two entrances in a four-plex to make it easier on the LTR tenants, but if you are open about it form the start, everyone gets it and you choose the unit composition based on which ones will be STR or MTR.

Also any advice for me is appreciated (save up more, focus on business instead, etc)Any more info you need comment below!

This has been plenty for me.Vrbo has free dynamic pricing which has worked well for me.

My banker is too busy for me to hassle her on that.If you have a multi unit you can nominate 1 tenant to collect all the rent and mail it to your bank or PO Box.

I think behind tenant screenings and leases there is a quality of a landlord that's also as a person that is the respect for a good person and the intelligence of making fair affairs.For me for ten years in the past I had a house of 650sqft (two rooms and cozy kitchen) where I always have been giving away one of the room for others who were asking for help for themselves and I didn't had any earnings for me by that, and that has been during for many and many years, meanwhile I was surely needing more space for me, for my business in a studio and for my own personal life I eventually could have been having.Nonetheless this, on last years I had no more an house and I needed a room for rent, but even before any screening the landlords were being unrespectful and very unreasonably severe to me, they often had making me lose so much time by no taking or going away to the point I had no other choices in the end, and they set me in the wrong places for me, dangerous ones, too small, too big and very expensive, unhealthy ones or not providing anything at all when it was obvious they needed to.To me this kind of behaviour is very wrong, mostly because usually they are the same people who pretend respects and acts as they are very careful and attentive to housing situations in general, but with me, they have been lying above anything and just disrespected the person at a human level. 

And thanks for giving me insight to how the lending process will work for me and the obstacles it can intail.
