@Bo Badalich Two things contribute to make a prospective purchase a deal.  

That being said...Some of the ways I have influenced the sphere of prospective tenants I get is: 1) I don't do Craiglist.

Go work as an assistant at a large single family property management company, get your RE License and do things the right wayAs a property manager, if youwant to lease, rent, list, procure prospects, negotiate, or assist in any of these tasks, you will needto have a real estate broker's license. ...

I showed the unit today to a prospective tenant that makes about $100K/year.

Rents are hot right now, as long as the property cash flows, it's a potential prospect.

I was wonder what's the best source for getting a hold of cell phone numbers if I already have a list of prospects for lead generation?

The agreements also require defendants to advertise any future rental property as "Equal Housing Opportunity" properties, to maintain a record of rental applicants submitted by prospective tenants, and to report all discrimination complaints received to the Attorney General's Office.

This is a topic for each investor to cover with prospective management companies before hiring one.I know of at least one management company that recommends the owner pay for the renter's insurance (with the cost folded into the rental rate) and advertise that fact as a marketing matter.
