Finding tenants via facebook, craigslist, word of mouth, etc.. doing a phone screen, running background checks, etc.. takes A LOT of my time.

How can I leverage my computer science background to enhance my real estate career?

I also have updated my application with a section where they can address variances to my "typical qualifications," where they can explain things like an old criminal background record (still states absolutely no evictions) or a divorce that wrecked their credit score. 

Post their info, let's look into their background.

Well they took sooo long to find a tenant with a good background I finally used a real estate agent in the Atlanta area.

Just for some background info......the only reason I started and own Skip Genie now is because I specialized in highly distressed vacant properties and learned the ins and outs of how to efficiently find and contact the owners/heirs and then be able to close on them.  

That will help keep thing square with the guests.Remember that you need to do a full background check etc etc with a regular full lease for the time they are there.

Good luck in Real Estate and perform full background/credit checks with your prospect tenants.  

If you choose to work with an attorney for your 1031 whose experience is limited to a few 1031s a year (even though they may have a vast real estate background) you'll likely not get the economies of scale and a competitive price for your 1031. 

It's a highly technical process cumbersome by NYC Dept. of Buildings, therefore it hard to explain what to do in a few short sentences.
