If they are VERY professional, they will have their processes in writing as verification that policies are enforced equally and fairly by their entire staff.6.

This family is currently searching for a home, and our agent, who also represents them, has generously offered to waive any commission for connecting us.After outlining our standard tenant qualifications—which encompass application requirements, income verification, rental history, credit score, background checks, a non-smoker policy, occupancy guidelines, pet policy, application fees, and move-in costs—our agent indicated that the extensive discussions and adherence to these requirements "equals a full commission of one month's rent."

And in this day and age of of PC, DEI, etc..., that's not going to happen anytime soon.I hope I'm right...

Here's a deal analyzer template that I use.Even then, I recommend making sure whatever property you buy can also cash-flow as a long-term rental in case things don't work out.Cash flow verification is a good tip, that would be my back up strategy.

In this day and age I wouldn't ever consider putting my money into an asset of such impoverished value. 

I have funded i bet no less than 200 deals in the last 10 year that were from Aussies selling their home that is now a full reno.. many of them in their superannuation funds. ( US version of IRA )  just the dirty little secrets most wont talk about. propertyinvesting.com.auJust posted on there last week.It's completely dead mate.Such a shame.SomerSoft was big and they shut down also and re-started propertychat which is now huge lolBut literally no talk about investing in the US.Aussie's got burnt bad so it makes sense unfortunately Yep, $100,000 in Super for example.Property agreed cost $50,000 but provider put $100,000 on PA.Gave the $50,000 back to Aussie investor so they can cycle money "legally" out of Super.Was a nice little scam that suited many Aussie folks and property sellers in the US.Even tho the property they bought in the US was $#%@ but I guess that was the cost of getting money out of the Super prior to retirement age.

Learning how to do that properly at a young age will serve you well. 

Essentially they're a letter the seller puts together for each tenant stating the basics - whether they have a lease (and its termination date) or if they are month to month, what they pay each month and whether they're current on those payments, whether they have a security deposit (and if so, how much), whether they have a pet (and its breed, name, & age), whether they pay extra for that pet or have a pet deposit you'll have to refund, etc.

Do the leases revert to month to month if they don't give you notice of if they want to renew or not.You may want to research landlord-tenant laws in San Pablo but I know that in Oakland and San Francisco (where I have my rentals), I would most likely have to pay out a relocation fee if I wanted to sell, which could cost in the thousands, depending on number of tenants, minor children, if any have a disability, over age 65. 

This is not surprising as that's how water is dealt with in every state we cover.But yes, this should be fought... based upon the facts presented, seems unfair for lien to be recorded years later.It's also possible information regarding this bill was available but overlooked due to its age.
