My most pressing issue is a property I just bought for 256k that I need 50k in order to fix up so I can turn it into my first STR. 

You may get lucky and find a lender that will do that but would be hard pressed to find someone that offers 100% financing.

Click Save and Close Go to your Customer center and choose your tenant (Name) do a Ctrl + I  (for Invoice) and this window should appear.Click on the Expenses TabTo put a check mark next to the bill you want to send your tenant press the space bar on your keyboard and click on save and close.And now the bill appears for your tenant. 

. - Driven by Insights by Walker and Dunlop (a big CRE finance operation) All of these are good, but if I am pressed or time and have to pick, I usually go with On the Market then George Gammon. 

For example LA is having a "come-to-Jesus" moment over the homeless issue, and parts of Chicago with the rampant crime, and on other side of that coin there is parts in TX and FL that have a unique force factor in play pressing greater than average appreciation. 

It's not granite countertop, it's pressed wood. 

With $100K you would be hard-pressed to purchase a dilapidated property and cover the renovation costs. 

I just got off the CI Webinar as well...before I press send and shell out $1,500..I want to get feedback first..I do a lot of calling and have my list prepared for me and uploaded into MOJO dialer...some of the list I am already pulling like pre foreclosure..the question is is this worth it to get a real time list of Zombie properties (In pre-foreclosure and vacant), every probate sent weekly, and real time Auction list (Courthouse auction within 45 days)..this would be the best list..and real time means fresh leads...if the data is good this is a good deal...they are advertising 20,000 skip traces per month..and the offer based on the price sounds too good to be true...something is got to give...it would currently cost me $3,400 per month to skip trace 20,000 properties...so their data is most likely garbage...you will be able to get some #...but in high volume calling operation a 4% connection rate vs 7% is a big deal..so to be conservative you probably need to add the cost of the skip tracing (in addition to the cost of the program $1,500 start up + $97/per month after 3 months + skip tracing list) since I seriously doubt they are going to the top most high quality vender...I will be joining tomorrow and will provide more feedback shortly...

For example, I was the one pressing hard on knowing if tenants were paying rent.

You can’t beat the Fed’s printing press.
