We've been looking into acquiring suitable properties with our agent but the issue we're running into is the licensure specs (Maryland) contemplate owning/leasing the property before applying for a license (background - grandfather started the process 8yrs ago but deal fell through - given his professional status he was able to waive many of the licensing hurdles so not concerned about hiccups in the process). 

It's situated on the most prestigious lake in the county, and what's particularly noteworthy is that there are currently no other waterfront properties available on this lake.As someone with a background in real estate and a passion for investing, I'm excited about the potential of this opportunity.

I do have customer service background working in high end restaurants in Orlando for 8 years (getting food shopped all the time and passing with 100%) and feel I would be an excellent asset to someones property in it becoming a successful STR.

Easy platform to use on mobile devices and I also like that I can view applications before I ask for background checks.

My issue is that I come from a low income background and have fought my *** off, pardon my language to get to where I am now and comfortable.

You don't need to be in the trades or have a background in construction, or finance, or anything else.

I would just mindful of how soon before that seasoning requirement is met that you start the process because things like credit reports, appraisals, background checks, etc., are only consider valid for a certain period of time.

They say they will sign my lease and also sent me an addendum to sign allowing them to sublet.There are a few reasons why i like this option for this property, but im wondering how to background check the company and the individual they are assigning to ensure ill be paid monthly as they claim. 

Much of what I'm experiencing is placing tenants, background checks, meeting them onsite, handling calls, dispatching maintenance to handle issues etc. 

Are you going to run a full background check on these people or are you going to just risk your family with renting to a potential child molester or serial killer?
