If so they may have a real estate license or they may work with an agent that relies on repeat business rather than a one-off purchase. 

The credit score and income will help you determine if they can pay and will likely pay on timeThe landlord references, eviction history, and criminal history can help you determine how they will treat you and the property.none of it is full proof, but the more info you have the better.

HelloWe recently purchased a property through 1031 Exchange and the title is with our Revocable Trust (Trustee my wife and I).

I sold about half my stock portfolio to purchase real estate here in January.If it's not time to buy right now, when is buy time? 

It is also not an option to not renovate as she came with the house when I purchased it and absolutely trashed the place. 

Don't be suckered into buying cheap properties - unelss you know exactly what you are getting into.Here's some copy & paste advice that applies to just about any Midwest rental market:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I’m interested in purchasing an investment property with equity I’ve developed in my current home, however I’m concerned that if I have an issue renting out the new home it can blow up in my face.

Quote from @Yash Shah: Hello everyone,I'm new to this group and would love to hear your thoughts on the pros and cons of purchasing a corporate or bank-owned home.

We've sold 65+ homes and the biggest request we get from our Buyers is help with closing costs.Most of our deals we're providing anywhere between $5K-$10K to help Buyers offset the cash requirement to purchase a home.Even in today’s "high" interest rate environment, many Buyers prioritize closing cost assistance over an interest rate buydown.

Price needs to be fair but how your clients are treated and the service will determine your success.
