I am just in the process of lining up an investor for backing and wondered what it would take to begin a business like this.

I am only bidding as an INVESTOR during the investor period.I have not placed any signs on the property or even on the street that it's on, just in the neighborhood and on the main roads.K.Marie Poe - I'm in the process of reviewing the contract, have not found anything yet but will let you know if I do.Like I said, I've done this twice before with no problems and I know others do it as well so I don't understand what's different this time.

I've used agents 3 times to place place tenants. 2 out of the 3 broke their lease before the first year was up, and I almost filed eviction on the 3rd, but they cured just in time.

Justin Williams, welcome to BP.

I don't know if I've had a bad past couple of days, or if I'm just in a bad mood, but the pros I have been asking for help want money.

She should always do a money order or check so she has a receipt in case it gets lost.And I also recommended that she wrap the check/money order too just in case.I did sign up for one of those online rent payment services.

Like the vote of confidence Justin Silverio

Just in this area the 40-50 year old houses that are remodeled sell at $2M+, These areas are highly desirable with no new quality homes.

Justin S., thank you so very much.

Justin Morgan Thanks!
