Often times the to do lists for the contractor is in the 40-80 item range, and even with a good PM its impossible to monitor everything perfectly, and I have caught some items here or there that were either not done at all or half assed.   

Most residential mortgages have a tax service that monitors your taxes and/or pays them, and as soon as that bill is in a new owner's name, you are putting your investment in jeopardy. 

There should be some good locals that monitor that state forum and they will most certainly be newer information sources as well.  

However as our RE agent said, how could it be monitored and enforced????  

Just don’t chose to pay for all their continuous monitoring,l stuff.

Once Starbucks is there you are well behind the curve.Ways we monitor are watching local papers, planning meetings, studies, and one of the best is your local business journal.  

Called the all plane parachute  but it actually works  LOL...Good luck on it... if those numbers hold true as I state its a stellar deal.As long as you live right there and can monitor it.Also you need to have the wherewithal to pay off the first if it goes wonky. there was a thread last week on a lady in Alameda CA who did a small second 50k behind a very large HML 500k. and the guy went dark and she can't cure the first I suspect she will lose all her money. 

I wanted to highlight the significance of monitoring your credit report, especially if you're considering a major financial move like buying a home.

No room for delays or emotions in business dealings.All of this assuming you have a good PM and not one that simply takes your money and does not regularly monitor the property and tenants.

It's difficult to monitor when you live more than an hour away.
