Everything went smooth and we were able to close 12 days sooner than the original closing date which was great!

My fear chasing the homebuyer is I have to kick a solid rent paying tenant out at lease end, probably do some make ready, then live without rent while marketing and hope the sale goes smoothly.

I have a connection that will allow me to smoothly transition into being a broker after 2 years (about a year after I graduate).

How can I fix the patio for it to be smooth?

As a property manager for a few years now I can say that:1) it's incredibly rewarding and one of the best feelings is to take a problem property with problem tenants and turn them around and make them into a profitable venture (I've been doing that for a decade with foreclosures so it's much the same to do it for investors).2) I have fired clients over the years...when my office is disrupted and angry emails and calls are coming in OR when I have come to the conclusion that an owner doesn't feel we are worth the value (and in turn we don't feel they are worth the effort to calm down and constantly smooth feathers) then we respectfully part ways. 

Would love to set up a time to chat, My Brokerage, Indy Home Shop specializes in OOS Investors, from finding a property, connecting you with the best contractors in the area and making sure every step goes as smooth as possible!

Went smooth, no issues.

Do it now so you are prepared to grow smoothly.

As long as you do your numbers right and go through a pretty thorough screening process the ~$150k property should be all smooth sailing, which may very well not be the case with the cheap houses.
