My boyfriend is currently in a bit of a quagmire, and I’m hoping we can get some excellent advice here.He has found a property that he absolutely wants to purchase.

Luckily the mom of one of the buyers has excellent income, low debt, and great credit and signed on.  

It should be easy enough to track with excel and 4 manila folders.

Excellent post; Do you have any realtors that specialize in STR for the Shennandoah area.

Also Edinburg (another city in the RGV) is one of the fastest growing cities in South Texas. 

:Jesse makes an excellent point for owning property in a limited liability entity in addition to having liability insurance coverage on the property.

We were told initially our excellent credit would get us our requested amount across 2 personal cards and 2 business cards.

It was really good but nothing you couldn't have gotten if you've read David Lindahl's excellent books.

I keep track of everything in Excel and it's not that much work imo.

The times I'd been over there to address repair requests (very rare throughout the years; it's understandable now) bedroom doors were closed and "friends were visiting" that day.Instead of evicting for breach of lease I decided to raise the rent by $375; they paid but sent a letter of termination with the appropriate timeline (30 days notice).The letter of termination included a statement that they fully expected to receive all of their security deposit back as they were leaving the house is "excellent" shape.
