Just curious what your background and experience is in this field.

With your background in real estate (STRs and assisted living), commercial MAY make more sense and then if there are any residential deals you can take them as well.

Unless they fixed it, apartments.com was having trouble with criminal background checks.

@Sebastian Nadal for background checks, I use stessa/rent prep that’s available to us through biggerpockets tools.

Bramante I was suspicious of his speed and sloppiness in performing what was obviously a quick and dirty analysis without forethought or more background on the project.Mrs.

For background, I'm partnered with an architect and interior designer, but I'd have to find most of the subs as I don't have any formal connections (at least in the area I'd like to build).

Leasing is a specialized skill—PMs deal with this daily, making them far better equipped to handle applications, verify income, conduct background checks, and evaluate a tenant’s overall suitability.Protecting Your Investment:The cost of a bad tenant can be far greater than the cost of hiring a professional.

Buildium and Rentprep will also need the video tour, and the home office ownership or lease info if you want to be able to run credit/background checks directly without having the applicant submit and then approve you to receive the data.

If the eviction goes to court, then there is a record of that eviction on their file and it will make it harder for them to find another place to live (assuming the landlord does a background check).Not renewing the lease happens when either party decides they simply don't want to renew the lease. 

I've noticed the typical Silicon Valley hard-core tech startups have a disproportionately high male to female employee ratio, a large portion of engineers hold advanced degrees from big-name tech schools like Stanford and MIT, the C level execs all have extensive tech background even the ones that deal with the business side, etc. checking out online reviews is actually not that straightforward and without traps.
