Here is a little about me.I'm a 7 year Coast Guard veteran.

I understand increases are never welcome and I don’t want to catch you off guard.

For obvious reasons doing business with this individual was a bad idea, but when others contacted with the same requests I had my guard up.  

I’m looking for my 1st deal, have analyzed a bunch & feel that I am getting close... this will serve to remind me to keep my guard up!!!

I wasn't sure if there was anything related to financial history / Fair credit reporting that would catch me off guard.

This risk premium is what can make foreclosures such a bargain, but it’s also something that you can guard against by understanding clues that tell you the story of the house, and what repairs you’ll have to make.First off, if you’re buying foreclosures at the sale you’ll need to see the property before you buy.

Then get LIFELOCK to guard against your father's actions.

Not sure if you still need the windows, but How about climate Guard, I've used them before for my property...

“Diversification” is for those who don’t know what they’re doing.Get educated.Put all your eggs in one giant basket.Your basket.Then watch the basket like a mother-so and so.Sit beside it and guard it with a semi-automatic if you have to.That’s what I do.Good luck.

My expectation is that the tenant is going to be taken off guard by the knock on the door and that's my hope.
