Hi My BP Community,I'm looking for the best free or economical Skip Tracing programs in 2018.

If you are doing it for economic reasons "I can charge more rent", it probably has a twenty year payoff.

Account Closed i don't trust anything when it comes to sellers and brokers.you need to verify as much as you can. with rent roll, you want to make sure that you know what rents are currently paid, not just Physical occupancy But also Economic occupancy - that means tenants that actually paying rents. you can verify these by asking for bank statements, and schedule 1from the TAX Return. 

Recession resistant asset class (people downsize, move in together, move back home, etc. during recessions)Cash flowing asset (not dependent on market appreciation)People buy a lot of crap and toys during good economic times (and need a place to put it)75% of the facilities in the country are owned by non-institutional owners (opportunity for adding value)Small ($10-30) rental increases create large increases in NOI and property valuationSticky tenant baseUnits are easy to maintain (brick and metal, no amenities, little landscaping)Location, population growth, and barriers to entry matter. 

My nightmare is to end up at a point, most likely due to economic shift, where I cannot find a renter, can't sell the house, and I am stuck with a house payment (or several) and no income being produced on the property.

Partly because they haven't done since 2011 but also because they are preparing for the changing market from FoxConn and other economic development. 

Im curious I wanna know what can I do to profit on the rumors i been hearing of another economic crash.

It makes sense to focus on areas with strong fundamentals and, in particular, population and economic growth rates.You mentioned a few cities I hadnt explored before, so will be sure to check them out too! 

Even though the appraisal wasn't ideal.... the cashflow/numbers all still work.... crisis averted, and I now know not to sign anyone else's contract!

I found some good markets (growing. population, economic anchor, good school district, etc).
