Is it a good business practice to work with someone you never met? 

If you catch these at the pre-foreclosure stage as slow pays or initially in default all the better as the bank has less in collection expense.You can still work out a discount but even buying at the payoff it can be profitable depending on the property value.You can practically force a lender to sell as it can fully indemnify them as a full payoff as demanded, continuing with a foreclosure becomes a rather vengeful act by the bank to punish a borrower, they don't want to go there.

Hi @Shan Randall,Welcome to BP and congrats on stepping back into the landlord game!

Since there are often different entities, there are different skills and systems needed.With that said, I can tell you are definitely better at building systems that I am (I have built up some best practices, but they mostly reside in my head).

Their practices are neither transparent nor honest, and I would not recommend their services to anyone.I have money owed to me and they have not sent an ACH even though they have my routing information.

I want to know the best practices for splitting utilities.

As stated in this thread, I believe BL does not let you keep your data if you leave the platform which is not good business practice, IMO.
