Thanks for your help--Background -- About to start construction on a single home residential property as an owner builder (and yes I know how many in this group already feel about that).

@Kenneth Reimer Yeah my background is in construction which is another reason I think fix and flips would be a good starting point for me.

After a few months, we finally found a buyer, but I had to settle for less since I opted to sell the property as is to save on renovation costs.To give you some background, I initially purchased the property for $155k.

But I heard also, gov. is trying to do loan modification as much as possible to those CRE in distress.So lot of thing going on in the background that's very interesting ...

It's still a good policy to do backgrounds on the tenants just like you would for any.

Make sure your facilitator has a good background and is willing to educate you.

Or what software/company do you use to obtain background checks on your tenants ?

Your background in Airbnb hosting paired with your enthusiasm for out-of-state real estate investing is truly impressive.

Hey, I also use mysmartmove.com for background/credit check with tenants.
