Just an update on this thread, I ended up purchasing vinyl window locks for each opening and installing a motion light.

The broker returned my phone call immediately and drove 45mins from the office he was located at for the day to come visit me at the location i dropped into instead of asking me to drive out to him, we spent over 2 hours talking in his office going over everything the company has to offer, he really took a lot of time to make sure i understand everything the company has to offer, the commission seems to be very in the agents favor with 2 programs to choose from.

I like the public record route because not many people use those tools in their favor.

Do Non hearing motions exists in California?

At this point I can tap bank loans for much more favorable terms so I should probably hold off on any seller-financing deals until that no longer becomes an option.Overall, the deal seems lose/lose.  12.5% locked in for that long does seem like a low ROI for the seller (especially considering interest rates will likely rise significantly in that time), yet still too high for me for cash flow purposes.

Hi Everybody,I'm looking into two markets Pittsburgh and  Minneapolis/St.Paul and was trying to find out whether they're landlord friendly cities, all I've found are these articles that were helpful but there were no  mentions of Pittsburgh and Minneapolis/St.Paulhttp://capstonecapitalusa.com/the-most-friendly-8-landlord-states/http://www.rentersinsurance.com/2012/03/8-states-where-rental-laws-favor-landlords/Could anyone tell me how long it takes to evict a tenant in either markets?

I will be focusing on specifically Philadelphia, since i currently work/live in Manhattan, Philadelphia has favorable prices and it's relatively close to New York.

If you're an experienced investor, I ask you a favor.

I hope I can do my part to return the favor. - Rob Quinn

Depending on the location and type of property, rents can be very favorable here.
