@Taylor Comer I second the advice about Google voice - free and super useful - you can forward it to your cell, have it be just on answering machine, customize greetings, etc. when the number gets called both my phone and my wife's phone ring and when a message is left I get a text and an email transcript.

I recently asked a tenant to leave due to non-payment of rent, and when they left I noticed the refrigerator wasn't working properly. 

If an applicant passes that criteria, then the only issue left is credit, and rent will be based on credit score. 

Ironically I am no bleeding heart liberal in business or finance, but socially I am pretty lefty, I admit. 

Whatever is left, is your monthly cash flow from that property.

The collectors I found said they don't deal with person-to-person collection, and I don't have a registered company.And I am not sure where they are; they said they moved out of state, and the forward address they left is an out-of-state address.Pls suggest any collection services; I am ok with paying a big portion of the recovered rent to the collector.

This is how townhouses get built,  for example a 50x100 lot is divided into four 25x50 postage stamp lots.Also,   some SFR areas adjacent to 'urban village' designated areas and arterials were upzoned further to 'lowrise'  (low to mid density multifamily) Since the only long term way to handle demand for more housing is to build more housing,  and because (left coaster here) I'd prefer more density to more sprawl into what rural areas we have left I generally support a gradual upzoning process.
