I am foreseeing a bit of a push back or even turned-off potentially decent tenants by the $50/pp screening fee, mostly for a family of 4 ($200 out of pocket).I was wondering if offering a credit of either 50% or the full 100% of the screening costs from the first or second month's rent is a good idea.Thought?

Inflation will push up rents over time, so at some point you will be cash flow positive.

I do understand that not partnering pushes back your timeline substantially...I'm in the slow and steady wins the race and stay small, own it all camp, though. 

For example we helped a client acquire a $1.5M oceanfront home that is pushing $180-200K per year and a $875k home (with no water feature) generating $125k gross revenue annually

I probably could have gone through it in two weeks if I had gone full force, even a week if I had pushed it.The course itself was very good.

That discussion pushed me towards ground up construction, where I finally find myself today.

I'd love to see a copy of it as I'm dealing with a potential tenant who's pushing things a bit.

A buddy of mine up in Omaha once inherited a tenant who refused to let inspectors through the door.. ended up pushing back renovations for a month and racking up costs like you wouldn’t believe.

Yes I have known it to work because the owner is not a push over, enforces policy and can make it run good......however, do you have the right personality to do this, AND if you move out can you continue to have the house run smoothly with no one in charge.
