One issue I ran into with an HOA is the "telephone" game where the HOA will notify me via email of some small infraction on the tenants part, so I have to inform my PM who then notifies the tenant.

The situation where each side has their own agent reminds me of the children's game "telephone", where a message is relayed through many people and much of it ends up getting garbled.  

Blair PoelmanI’m going to have to re read the lawsNot sure where the line is drawn pretty much hear most investors who are looking to wholesale are doing it.As a contractor when I had telephone solicitors finding business, for every complaint there was someone who said thank God you called I didn’t know what to do.

You showed this:Gross Rent $18,210 (increased to $20k for 2022 due to rapid rent increases in 2021 and 2022)Direct Expenses (includes maint, ins, tax, HOA Fees, and depr) $6,916Indirect Expenses (Telephone, Travel, prof fees, etc) $351Net Income (Rent-Direct-indirect) $10,944And I replied to you, asking do you not take into account capex, vacancy, and debt?

Sometimes, my parents didn't have enough money for the telephone, sometimes electricity.

using technology for efficient outbound communication to the world is direct action oriented, starting with the tele-phone invented in the 1800's i think.....anyone afraid of initiating talking usually criticizes it, because they cant do it. it's a skill, and the foundation of real estate transaction.Using technology to wait for inbound calling is less action oriented, indirect, passive, but can also support your efforts to connect with the outside world too.there is nothing more action oriented and direct and scary than picking up the phone to initiate a conversation.  

Telephonic hearings if available.

Anyone who is intereseted is welcome to contact me and connect with me for a free 90 minute, real, one-on-one telephone mentoring session. 

I certainly don't want to waste anyone's precious time on the telephone, and I absolutely want to instill both confidence and trust with all of the sellers I reach out to.Can anyone please help me put together a list of questions that I would want to make sure to ask sellers when I get them on the phone?

Make sure you check rental history with the prior LL and not the applicant's mother; you do that by finding the telephone number yourself.
