Just call a few law offices in your area that specialize in wills and living trusts.

Broadly speaking, there are two types; offsite (like SFR, small apartments, etc) and onsite (large apartments with leasing offices on the property).For offsite, I usually see 8-10% of collected rents, half or all of late fees and 1/2 to all of the first month's rent. 

Andrea,My corporate office in in Chicago and some of the 2-4 units right now offer a good price point and cash flow. 

The investments should be chosen based on increased wealth, so that an investment in land, providing no income, but likely to triple in value in 24 months, would be chosen over a office building throwing off 12% income, but unlikely to increase in value.  

The game does not include the little boarded up houses :) Now what Aaron is describing could be where one of those little green houses are if you passed on the medical office worker crowd.Lets take these 3 options below and put aside the cash flow on paper part for a sec.Five years hold scenario:Medical renter 70kAarons 40k guessingBoarded up zone 20k Let say the medical center house only turns over 2 times in 5 years, no issues, one month vacant.  

IN any case, I would send a certified copy of the new terms to the Housing office along with same copy to the resident; Then I would confirm with the Housing Authority/Resident they received the letter & acknowledge the new terms.

These data points you can get from the recorders / assessors office. 

I told them they are nothing more than bank loan officers, whose job is to sit and wait for someone to come in, hand them an application, then walk it down the hall to the loan committee.

Tell them you are calling the office, and they just may lose their free ride.

Some offices will do as little as 50/50 and graduate up as you increase sales volume each year.
