@Christopher BlakeYou need to check your state laws and make sure you are in compliance.

Many times in the early days of our business we would lose a deal, because another investor was quicker to pull the trigger.

I have not done any deals yet but plan on following through with that. im currently learning as much as I can about all aspects before i go ahead and pull the trigger.

@Matt Bacenet, so glad you are thinking about Turnkey properties, I hope you read as much as you can before pulling the trigger.

While researching deals, you should start building your team (realtor, attorney, lender, etc) so you are ready to pull the trigger when the time comes.Are you targeting any specific areas?

It is a no brainer for them, and that is why they are doing it.When they knock on the door using the advertising violations as their entree, their main meal could easily be compliance violations tied to retailing or seller finance.

Did you follow up ...here I think it is a 3 day non payment of rent notice then a 7 day notice of non compliance  then a 15 day termination notice..all the paperwork is available free on our clerk of the court site...you probably should have posted notices immediately even if they said they were moving out so you did not lose days...try your clerk's office or even contact a lawyer so you know the process for the future

What is your US tax compliance costs as a percentage of the NOI of your portfolio?

That should work but you would need to update it as the forwarding expires after a period of time.http://www.cityofsacramento.org/Community-Development/Code-Compliance/Programs/Rental-Housing
