While your lease may indicate that the tenant pays, the biggest problem with this is that tenants will stop reporting issues for fear of paying.

How did you decide on this property, and what’s been your biggest learning from this project?

The single biggest issue in my way currently is obtaining enough cash, whether it be my own, or through partnerships or family/friend-based lending (which I am very hesitant about to begin with as this could potentially strain relationships unnecessarily when money is involved).

These are some of the biggest developments happening in the metro, but there are dozens more that I won’t go into here to avoid this report going on to long.Thank you for reading my research report on the outlook for the D.C.

When you say without luck, what's been the biggest bottleneck?

And the BIGGEST advantage, more ways to monetize a lead.

It's an awesome way to jump into RE yes its scary at first but as long as you have a criteria going in it eases some of the emotions during the process my biggest thing was lower my cost or keeping it the same.

I think your biggest issue with any "work-arounds" is going to be your legal liability and holding the proper insurance in case something goes wrong, which I'm going to assume you'd need to be properly licensed in order to be properly covered by insurance.

@Justin Goodrich I can speak for a lot of investors and say our biggest problems are out of our control. 

Investor focused realtors & Property managers are going to be your biggest asset since they'll be finding your deals & managing the day to day operations for you.
