I've told them that I would give them at least 48 hours notice, and they've told me that they'll sue if I don't pay them $50 each time I show the house, because they are worried that I will show the house to a registered sex offender.

Keep in mind that it has another big attraction, its "sex appeal".

Background checks in order to stay away from any sex offenders, people who have been evicted in the last 5 years, their income must be 2 1/2x the rent, NO felons.

I used to work in the title business, so I've seen quite  a bit, from fraudsters conveying twice to people having sex changes while they owned property to railroad land with insanely detailed - and completely useless - property descriptions. 

Only in this way does it enrich my life instead of drain it.TBH I'd rather spend $30,000 on my game hobby than earn $300,000.Think of it like sex.

I just want to re-iterate that regardless of sex, anyone is capable of teaching to and learning from others. 

You should also check the sex offender database.

Pretend you are worried about sex offenders living on your property while you are going through the eviction process.

They try and paint a picture of an ideal short sale...banks stepping up and taking discounts...loss mitigators listening to reason after you show them your contractors estimates, price opinions, neighborhood stats, sex offenders etc... and rightly so...I firmly believe the people advertising short sale seminars and boot camps are NOT actively doing short sales...otherwise they would have no time to market their products...therefore they lose credibility in my book.The upside is that they prepare you for the process, what paperwork to get from the homeowner so you have authorization to talk to the bank..and that will save you a lot of time.

Cash on cash was 18%.Appreciation hasn't been great in the past but it's in a growing area and the "path of progress" since its a hike ride to the new light rail.Another kicker is that one of the current tenants is a sex offender.
