can we do a background check on tenant that is already in lease and in the property?

He has no real estate background but does have more of the money to invest.

Technically, you do need some money, otherwise you have to figure out how to grind it out without much capital, which is what Ray did, listen to his story, it may help. 

My dad is retired and doesn't technically have income, and we couldn't combine my income with his credit score to purchase the property.

Very humble and polite tenant with perfect credit and background. 

Wholesaling can be a bit of a different beast compared to buy-and-hold strategies, but with your background, I'm confident you’ll pick it up quickly.I’d be more than happy to share some insights from my own experience in wholesaling or answer any questions you might have.

I run my entire "empire" using Excel/Sheets for tracking expenses, Apartments.com for online payments, MysmartMove for credit/background checks, DocuSign for electronic signing, and Zillow & turbotenant for posting up listings.

You’re going to have a legal local lease made up, research the local laws, make sure you don’t even appear to discriminate, figure how/where to advertise, do background checks and so on.

We are looking for an attorney based in Texas since our LLC is registered in LLC. you technically do not need an attorney from texas, any attorney can write up an operating agreement. 

Background information - I have secured the property, have changed the locks, and the previous owner has not occupied the property in over 5 years and has mostly likely moved in with her daughter in a different state according to the neighbors.
