It seems like on occasion that this method may not be as effective.

Its been pretty reliable for me in a couple occasions.

House was vacant for most of 1 year - though I was there doing some work on occasion and slept on floor - no bug issues.

Sean - although I never had occasion to use his services, I met Steve Zipperman at the local RIAOC where he would regularly answer investors questions after the meeting.

Downtown Cleveland has been a stand-in for New York City on several occasions in various movies, and offers an unusually urban environment for a city of its size.

As a landlord, I have, on occasion, had to get a Spanish speaking friend to help me interact with a tenant.

And if on the rare occasion you get lucky and can get $1,100 in rent, your expenses will be only 50% of the FAIR MARKET RENT of $12,000.In the same vain, if you have a vacancy and collect only $11,000 in one year, your expenses don't go lower to $5,500, they will still be $6,000.

They do pay off on occasion.

On the rare occasion we require a full background verification, we submit a request to the RCMP or local law enforcement for a criminal background check.If you wish to farm out the entire application and verification process, many property management firms offer a placement-only service ... they typically cost you 1/2 to 1 months rent for the unit being filled.

I don't know J.Scott and have never talked to him, so I have no vested interest, but don't mind giving a positive endorsement in the rare occasion, where something/someone delivers above and beyond expectation.The best too you in you rehab adventure
