@Ken Halef @Stephanie Villard I'm starting out as well, possibly found my first deal.

LeadSherpa is a good service i had a lot of experience with if you want to go that route.The two best strategies I’ve found are inbound methods: direct mail and Google Ads.Direct mail can be expensive, but it can also yield highly discounted properties.Google Ads, on the other hand, doesn’t require data extraction like calls, direct mail, or texting.

Motivated sellers are found by culling smaller lists and building relationships with the people you call with a more fine-tuned approach.

This is expensive from an initial capital and maintenance standpoint and I've been on the hunt for a better way.One option that I've found is installing BTU/Flow meters (Istec 4440) on the supply and return lines for each heating zone (one zone per unit).

But what Ive also found is a sewer line can look perfectly good, and still spontaneously collapse anyways.

Could be your housekeeper.I've found that condos that employ an on-site agent who lives at the complex typically have higher dues because it is not cost effective to do so.

From the information you provided, she seems like a prime candidate to not leave the property the way she found it, and will pitch a fit over any deductions taken out of her security deposit.

We immediately took action and found out they had turned the heat off when the temperatures were below freezing.

Apparently 50% is for my broker and the other 50% is for agent whom found the tenant.

Or it could be that the recipient inadvertently dropped the email (it happens).But if two-way communication has been established and you’ve found that the sponsor is consistently slow to respond, that would be cause for concern.
