But you can rest assured that the neighbors will gleefully tell that next tenant about how stupid/weak the landlord is, six chickens and three dogs, and he didn't know for X months, then he found out and he just let her off with a slap on the wrist, and the cycle of bad behavior goes on.We have a bunch of rentals in the same ugly neighborhood.

I stuck to the facts and kept it extremely simple: she was chronically late on rent, hadn't paid her utility bills, and I wanted her out so I could replace her with a more responsible tenant (I didn't even get into the lease violations, as I didn't want to). 

Fails to tell the homeowner that they are actively marketing the property for market value and that the investor or real estate broker plans to assign their rights in their contract with the homeowner to another investor/buyer.Fails to tell the homeowner that they intend to make a profit by accomplishing an assignment of the contract.Fails to tell the homeowner when the contract is assigned to a different investor/buyer.Investigated Case ExampleBelow is an example of a case that we investigated where the broker involved in the deal was referred criminally and her real estate license was revoked.The victim had the misfortune of being on her front porch when an “investor” and his real estate partner approached her and told her they used to live in the neighborhood and wanted to move back.They figured out her weaknesses and used them against her.After “working” on her for a few days, the investor and real estate agent had a meeting with her that lasted hours.

Because I'm doing FHA, 5% down this deal is appealing from a COC-ROI standpoint, but cash-flow is weak (Not Brandon Turner's recommended >$100/unit metric) given lower rents in this neighborhood, so insurance costs could turn this deal sour quickly. 

Having to offer lower rent incentives means you either have a questionable tenant base, a weak market or the landlord does not know their market.  

Hi @Aurora Darkling - Everyone has strengths and weaknesses, pluses and minuses. 

@Nathan McLeod, I found that working with a  mentor or partnering with others where I was weak has grown my business far more than had I worked alone.

He has paid rent chronically late and refuses to pay me but pays direct to Bank of America. 

Usually I am the type of person that has been chronically late, fickle about my interests and goals, prone to procrastination, and generally weak in matters of will power; and I realize that this admission might weaken my chance of working with those who read this should I not succeed in the near future, but I am posting this in part for those who might be or might have been in the same position.

You could then create your own tests based on modules you were weak in, or just a test on all the questions you got wrong, so that you could strengthen your knowledge by just focusing on where you were weak.
