However the older generation that lived through the 80s really like that arcade cabinet and they are the ones paying for the trip. 😉 

I take the approach of the investor pays me a fixed fee to learn this on their own so they never have to pay me again if they don't want to.

Your tenants can only continue paying similar rents if they remain employed at similar wages.

Use Real Estate By the Numbers as your guide, make sure it tracks the loan pay down and depreciation and have all of those numbers pour into a Schedule E.

But I need a portal where I can do the following -Customize the tenant application  ( Cozy does not  allow me to customize)- Have tenant Upload Pay stubs, DL, etc. 

You should never use a debit card or pay for medical expenses from your HSA, ever!

But I would not consider what the seller needs to make in determining what I'm willing to pay for a property, especially when youre buying a problem like this.

I would stay away from section 8, pull credit and background, and call referrals, and look at pay stubs for everyone who applies.

Checking: collect all income here, then use it to pay bills.

My experience in Massachusetts, where it took nearly a year to evict a non-paying tenant, has made me more selective about the locations I invest in.I am looking forward to learning and sharing insights with this community!
