I have a handyman who has a strong relationship with the tenants and for anything major I can call on my property manager for ad hoc services à la cart. 

A well coordinated and planned construction project due to the professional services yields less headaches, surprises and saves time which overall saves you money.   

Make sure it explicitly explains the process for termination if you are unhappy with their services, especially if they violate the terms of your agreement.3.

@James Floyd I use UDirect IRA Services out of California.

I have come across Beycom, but there is little info available about them and it's not clear if they provide title services unless listing and transacting the sale through them. 

So, given you are in a lower end area with lower rents, you need to reserve more money on repairs, maintenance and capex compared to a higher rent area, since that $200 HVAC or plumbing service call is 25% of $800/mo, but 10% of $2,000/mo.  

This is the most complicated piece because you are essentially the mortgage originator (which might run into licensing concerns depending on how many times you do this and your state), and you need to make sure the person who is buying is a good borrower.3) close with a title company or lawyer (state dependent) who knows how to deal with this type of transaction4) set up an account with a servicer to collect the money from the borrower (not required, but highly recommended from note buyers)5) collect payments

The government can borrow money from the central bank to buy goods and services, and then repay the debt by printing more money.

Hi @Meghan Begue,  Welcome to BP and thank you for your service!  

He went out, fixed it, and charged us a service call.Tenants are getting so good I'm not even having to do anything anymore lol.
