-When a tenant moved out, the management company refunded their security deposit but failed to account for damage, such as holes in walls and outlets ripped off the walls, leaving me with repair bills and also tenants moving in without the repairs being done.Stuff like this that is consistent and when I ask questions they are defensive, when I ask for more quotes for high ticket items they are defensive. 

For my units, I usually look for someone with annual income 40x the monthly rent so I know they are financially secure. 

Hello fellow investor,Thank you for your interest in learning more about our company and how we secure funding for our clients.

If you can purchase this home with private money or seller financing and get a $110k loan, then you could do a rate/term refi right after so do a 90 or 120 day note to secure the property and get it in your name, then refi into long term debt using the full appraised value. 

The vast majority of lawsuits against Landlords are for wrongful eviction, security deposit disputes, and Fair Housing Violations.

Consider all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

Ask for higher security in person have them back out on their own if they still want the place you will be safer with more security

Also, securing financing is no different than site built unless you're dealing with  someone that has no experience originating loans. 

I recall reading something along these lines in The Economist, pointing out how hidden fees can vary widely depending on local ordinances.
