Would definitely recommend reaching out to a couple RE attorneys to chat.

.- The owner has full ownership and control of the property and can make all decisions such as when to sell, or may decide to operate the property according to their own wishes even if those wishes are against the recommendations of the property management company.

To get access to the maximum amount of equity, I would recommend Tower Credit Union.

I generally recommend if you're not going to buy a property in the city/market where you currently live, the next best place to look is where you have family (and presumably a place that you'll visit relatively often and easily).What is your price point and are you looking for turn-key properties or something along the lines of a "fixer upper", assuming you buy in Peoria or a similar priced Midwest market?

I would not recommend and did not renew my lease with them. 

It is highly specific, my recommendation is to contact the city directly with qualifying questions or have us do it for you :) In general Astoria is also a No-Go with the exception of commercially zoned properties.

Bigger Pockets is a great place to learn and connect with fellow investors.If you’re looking to invest long distance, I definitely recommend building your core-4 team.

If there’s no response, consulting with a real estate attorney would be wise to determine how to terminate the agreement and recover unpaid rent.Once they’re ready to switch PMs, I can recommend some reputable property managers here in Indianapolis who are responsive and trustworthy.

Terrific post Joel! 

Anyone have a direct mail or postcard service they recommend for such a scenario?
