If HUD becomes aware (which they may after a tenant becomes disgruntled) they will bar you from the program and may even pursue criminal charges.

You can also get on someplace like Crowd Street were you might see 2-3 a week that interest you.See if they have meetups in your area and go to those.See if they attend any of the regional or nationwide conferences and attend those.DO your due diligence on the principals....check criminal records, see how many full cycle deals they've done, talk to the people on their team like lenders and lawyers.   

Sounds like they'll drive themselves out of business, but good to know who the criminals are...

BrianNothing prevents tenant from running the water, kicking holes in walls and door, or other vandalism.However, these things seldom happen as retribution.More likely, a tenant fills up an inflatable pool every other day in the summer, or fails to report that the kitchen drain is leaking, or that the boyfriend beats her up every weekend and busting up the place, or that tenant lets a dog do his business on the carpet, or overflows the tub because they fell asleep.While a good tenant will agree to a fair water policy; the court will typically throw out the policy in an eviction.Keep in mind that you can get a leak notification from water department via “clear-reads” through the mycleveland water website.Usually bad tenants are multi-dimensional... they tend to follow a pattern... low credit score, extension criminal background hits such as driving with suspended license, expired plates, drugs, panning the rent late, refusing to pay the water, violating trash pickup guidelines, police calls by the neighbors, no-show for service calls, removing smoke retractor batteries for the kids toys, not replacing burned out lightbulbs, not taking care of the yard (in a single family”, busting blinds and screens, etc. 

This sounds offensive I know, but try to be 100% honest with yourself for a sec.

No offense to anyone, but dude you are not going to learn how to invest by painting.

And if you know nothing about SEO and you still want decent SEO then Investor carrot got you covered.BUT, if you really want o dominate and completely conquer your market, you need SERIOUS SEO and credibility power, and no offense to anyone,  Not a damn company OR person comes even close to what I can do with SEO.

◦Ensure in-depth credit, criminal, employment and prior residency checks are performed.

You also risk someone making a copy and coming back for criminal purposes.3.

Criminal background check is important.You will hear people say section 8 is a bad idea but I have two properties in the program and they are excellent tenants because they don’t want to get kicked out of the program.
