In fact, some of them have been in the news lately and popped up on the foreclosure list as they are in trouble financially as well. 

I do feel like I'm to eager to start and I can see how that might get me in trouble.

If you personally are having trouble making a profitable deal, make a post and ask for suggestions.  

A tall fence, tree, exterior paint can control a lot of things your guest see during their stay.

And you don’t want to sell after going through all that trouble and miss opportunity.Here’s my take.  

Which I also would tell you that if you have trouble managing finances and poor credit I strongly advise against real estate as its capital intensive and if you struggle now managing money having more money and real estate only exacerbates that issue.

It can also be an opportunity to discuss house rules and expectations to ensure you're on the same page.While being cost-conscious is understandable, investing a little upfront for proper screening can save you a lot of trouble in the long run.

If this is about a fence a foot over the property line, I don't think the juice is worth the squeeze..

Hi Amanda,If they are trouble tenant then you should probably provide them whatever the notice period is in the current lease and just have them move out. 

True, I am 100% with you on that.The point here is, when you analyze, you do based on what you know now (what is known as a fact today) and on what is highly likely to happened (again from today) and to accept the fact that things might change tommrow.Life happened every day, that’s why  we need to stay firm with our direction but flexible with our approach.having lived through the HORRORS of those years fully engrossed in the industry almost nationwide... it was regional on who did well and who had troubles.. no question well positioned landlords in Portland for instance no issue..
