I have heard conflicting information about me not being able to and being able to discriminate against potential applicants on craigslist so my first question is, if I live in the house and I'm looking for house mates, am I able to be picky and interview them? 

If you are planning on exiting the property within a short amount of time the benefits may not be worth it- I would check with your CPA and/or cost seg tax specialist on it- Michael Blank interviewed a cost segregation expert on his show- episode 23 I believe titled "Save BIG with Cost Segregation for Multifamily Buildings"- they discussed cost segregation on SF + multifamily assets so I recommend checking it out!

Also, listen to podcast interviews and reach out to guests who are property managers in your area. 

Even if you know you are not going to use them, interview multiple companies. 

Have you interviewed any attorneys, title companies and CPA's yet?

I’d also recommend at least interviewing property managers as well.

I would suggest interviewing 3-5 candidates, describing your situation and asking how they would best serve your needs. 

Feels like I just typed an interview lol

They advertise 100% cash to close with only $3000.00 down.You need no experience, they perform no credit check, and the only interview I had with them were to answer some questions like “Do you want financial freedom?”

I haven't listened to many episodes but it looks like they interview a lot of local to UT experts so that's awesome for us UT people.
