I like the changing locks to prevent the scenario @Thomas Williamson warned about with someone coming back later to enter the home after a tenant moves in. 

Warning virtually all the "Free" sites only refer you to a pay site. 

I see lots of discussions on here from wholesalers and warnings about them, but where does one go to hire them?

Then subtract a little, cause agents are always a little too optimistic :)Also - a warning - I would be cautious about starting your first flip with something that's not-normal.

I was warned not to do business with inspectors who do not provide these simple assurances that they will do their jobs.

That's extremely important to me.Typically, I would not have done a warning letter then a 3-day, however, because the transition was less than one month ago, and the previous manager was horrific, I wanted to try and give her the benefit of the doubt for this one month.

I know they need attention as I was warned by the HOA late last summer about dry, brown front yard and don't want this to happen again.

My wife and I recently purchased this duplex and we're looking for ideas, analysis, and/ or warnings.

You might be held liable by a court regardless of what your warning or rules were at the time.

However, we have a growing university and healthy student rental market with about 95% occupancy.Now, it was the seniors "Bar Crawl" today so the realtor warned me they'd be partying and it's the end of the year so houses are in rough shape.
