The other is calling past landlords for references which I don’t think AI is ready for because I have had so many fake past landlords that I am able to sniff out in a conversation. 

I would be able to manage the finances, marketing and showings even while working but maybe not attend to the small stuff such as getting a random call to fix something stupid at 3pm when I'm 6 hours out of town or on my 30th day of night shift 12s. 

@Mary Lopez call 5-10 local community banks or credit unions where the property is located and you’ll find at least one that can work with you.

Bob doesn't realize his payment didn't clear until he gets his statement, he is in default, Joe calls the note due just to get at Bob and knowing Bob can't pay it off.

I called the water company.

Fast forward, I called the agent this morning.

Out here we call it the MLS, Multiple Listing Service.

Also, some areas call for higher quality finishes than other.

So do a background/credit check, get a full application, paystubs (Call to verify), former landlords phone #s (Call to verify), and other information.

Call agents/property managers in the area you're looking to invest in for real time stats like rent and pricing info.
