I look for distressed properties to get better profit margins How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

Even if the rent is covered, that doesn’t eliminate other risks—a tenant's judgments, liens, or criminal history could indicate past property damage, unpaid debts, or potential issues within the community.✅ ID Verification – Confirms the applicant is who they claim to be, reducing fraud risk.✅ Judgments & Liens Search – Since these no longer appear on credit reports, a separate search helps uncover past unpaid debts or legal disputes.✅ Eviction & Rental History – Even with corporate backing, past rental behavior can reveal red flags.✅ Criminal Background Check – A nationwide search can flag potential concerns.✅ Verified Income Data – If not paid through a company, checking bank deposits ensures financial stability.A little extra diligence in screening ensures you’re selecting tenants who respect the property and the community—not just ones with a corporate letter.

Simon, my investment group does lots of properties in Pitt. 

Getting an appraiser out there in the property is always best while the property is vacant.
