Quote from @Kar Sun: My tenant's lease is coming to a close and I am relieved she will be moving soon.She has been paying on time but has been extremely unpleasant and rude.While the money does not smell my mental sanity is more important than money in this case.She sent me a registered letter stating that she feels "unsafe because we have not done the fixes the way she wanted it".She requests to have her witness for a walkthrough.In my state a walkthrough is required but I am not about to grant it to her to bring any witnesses as that is not in my contract.If she feels unsafe she does not have t be present.I also do not treat a final walkthrough with a tenant as a final sign off.This walkthrough does not include a detailed inspection of the plumbing and the appliances that will be done after she departs.This is simply for the visible cosmetic issues and should take less than 1 hr.

Hey Chris, If your agent is only using RCM, they might not be familiar with platforms like Costar or LoopNet (which honestly should not be the case), or they simply may not have the budget to cover the upfront listing fees, which can get pricey.I’d circle back with them, address the plausible elephant in the room, and try to figure out a game plan to get your property on these other platforms.

Over the years I've noticed that it's very helpful to simply go visit in person your city of interest to get a better understanding of the market and the people that live there. 

You'll have a portfolio of what ever, it would simply be an investment with your own funds.

If you are considering using a more commercial method, such as a DSCR loan, those products are simply reserved for commercial use and not personal.
