What is good about Fulton, Dekalb, and Cobb, etc. is that these counties typically hold Tax Sales on a Monthly basis---a good thing for Investors.However, the properties are pre-selected by the Tax Sale Office, so the properties advertised, unless redeemed, will be the ones offered at the upcoming or scheduled Tax Sale.

Do your research and select someone that knows what they're talking about and cares about their students.

I make sure the closing company already selected by the selling bank can do a double closing or if not I find one who will do a double closing as a courtesy closing?

Finally, you can purchase homes at "Tax Foreclosure Sales" or Judicial Tax Sales in selective states/cities.

> Eviction Protection ProgramIF you manage enough properties, and IF you are confident in YOUR tenant selection, and IF you very carefully work out the numbers and details, this MAY be useful to you.

You can reduce your risks by being selective in your tenant choice and (something that really helped me) requiring a minimum two year lease.

You always want the contractor thinking that they might be selected if their bid is right.

A few suggestions which I think would enhance biggerpockets (some taken from vBulletin), in no particular order:* multi-quote - the ability to select multiple posts for quoting* kudos - ability to register approval of a post, or agreement with a point, and then count these and somehow rate posters - just provides more incentive to share and try to be constructive and helpful * ability to view the forum in wide screen format (maybe you can but I can't see how - the forum text only takes up about 30% of the width of my screen)* more/better emoticons - happy to suggest some if you like ;)* also I'd like emoticons inserted where the cursor is, rather than always at the end of the text (ie if you edit and want to insert an emoticon in an earlier para, you seem to be only able to do it by cutting and pasting the emoticon, which is always inserted at the very end of the whole post)* I imagine this is related to the fact that whenever you format some text, your cursor is moved to the very end of the post; I'd rather the cursor be left where it was just prior to applying formatting (eg bold)* ability to report/hide abusive posts, to try and stop conversations degenerating into slanging matches :roll: Love the forum - thanks, Josh.

You have to know what the goal/outcome of the advertising is before selecting a medium.
