I'd be buying the home with my fiancee to live in eventually, as it would take time to rehab.

I also love horses, art - particularily oil paintings, camping and spending time with with my fiancee!

My screening service has a confidential "tenant report card" for bad tenants where you can list a tenant and what they did to your property (which I am currently filling out as i have so much damage in such a short period of time--from a lawyer no less)but it is just for my state -a landlord would have to use my service and her name would come up--she and her deadbeat "fiancee" moved to Texas and I wish their new landlord could have found out about them.Any ideas or thoughts from anyone?

why is it everytime i come to this site, i get a pop up for a visa charge card?

I am curiuos to have insight from people who were in the business post Savings and Loan Crisis...specifically from a more experienced perspective..What do u guys think will be the effect of the Bailout ...vis a vis Rea l estate prices....PLS I DO NOT WANT THIS TO DESCEND INTO POLITICAL DISCOURSE, AM NOT INTERESTED IN SOCIALIST,FASCIST AND CAPITALIST POLITICAL DIATRIBE( NOT INTERESTED) am stricly interested in what I can do to better myself under this emerging conditions.Thank you

Visa/Mastercard accepted.I am also a licensed real estate agent.

What kind of Visa?

SteveGent -- There are a number of services out there that will help you get set up to collect rent payments online via check, VISA, MC, AMEX...

If you have a high credit score - you'll get a high credit limit and visa-versa.I agree with Jpopkin - some of your questions should have been asked and answered before offering a contract on the condo.Also - it scares me that you are trying to rent this condo with very little knowledge of what to expect.

Then wait 6 months and slowly you will be slammed with junk mail. ( because every credit card company loves to grab your attention).The key is to get 1-2 credit cards visa/mc and an amex.This has worked for me being a college kid!
