We’re one of the few property managers that require W-2’s and a bank statement and we go way beyond the traditional, “income must = 3x rent” qualifier.Below is more information about what our Applications Department does to screen applicants and find the best tenants possible for your property.Required InfoWe require the following from each applicant over the age of 18, that is not a dependent of another applicant (as evidenced on a tax return):Copy of acceptable state picture IDRecent YTD paystubRecent W-2Recent Bank Statement, all pages, no info blacked outRecent tax return if self-employedApplicants are often slow about turning this information in, asking us why we need it and then taking several days to submit.

With my current goal being focused more on cash flow, I’m wondering if pursuing turnkey means I’d have to wait many years to see any significant returns.

Therefore, it can't add automatic late fees, send email reminders or track per property. 

In my experience, cash flow is key, especially for long-term holds, so running a detailed DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) analysis might be a good step here.On the flip side, if you're eyeing faster returns, a flip might be more lucrative.

These are two completely separate parts of your tax return. 

Hello, I have purchased 4 different asset manager lists over the past two years, but three were ineffective with outdated information and many email bounce-backs or returned mail.The best list I found was at RealEstateTargetdotcom; I did a successful snail mail and email campaign, and picked up three new banks and an account with LPS.I also cross referenced names on the list to see who was attending or speaking at various REO conferences, and made efforts to meet asset managers in person.

and if the 401 “makes” more than 69,000 based on investment returns is that fine ? 

Since it's been a strong market with plenty of cash flow opportunities, they have been working with a lot of out of state investors lately.
