It alleviates years of unnecessary mistakes and gets you contacts in the area which in turn give you more resources for growth.  

You could build in a safety net but why take on unnecessary risks.

If it's a clogged toilet, pictures won't help and are completely unnecessary: either the toilet flushes or it doesn't.If an owner asked to inspect their property, I try to accommodate them but I require them to give reasonable notice to my staff so that we have time to schedule it with our office and the tenant.

But even shovels become unnecessary at some point.I was born in 1982 and don't know much about the history of oil trends and their effects on economies.

Simply Unnecessary.

Read books, participate in forums, listen to podcasts and you would be good.I like degrees cause they are forced structure to learn a topic, but somewhat unnecessary 

In most cases, we cannot expect our tenants to take care of the lawn as we wanted it to be and may lead to disputes.Renters are temporary, and they mainly expect to pay for the roof over their head.unfortunately, I had to deal with some similar experience when I rented out my property.I ended up having several dead spots due to urine turf damage.Make sure to clearly state out the lines regarding the lawn care in your rental agreement.I would suggest you make use of residential landscaping services in your locality and add that amount as u said to your rental amount.This way you can avoid unnecessary chaos and maintain your lawns beautiful as the way you want it to be.

Relying on the MC to remember to look at your Lender Conditions (on average once a week), results in even further delays.There is also not sufficient training provided to the MCs and their response of "NO" to everything they are unfamiliar with causes unnecessary frustration because at that point the NACA employees become the obstacle to homeownership.

@Christopher Winkler and @James Park this is becoming an unnecessary debate based on misinterpretations and a clear lack of understanding on your part. 

We were never really 100% sure until July 26th, 2013.As I was at Brake Check having the usual maintenance done, I stumbled across the day's San Antonio Express-News (paper) and on the headline reads "Valley Green-Card Fraud Alleged".Our investor who within months of opening his Regional office earlier last year recruited up to $100MM in foreign investment funds.It turns out the FBI had been following him in all his activities since last year and are now charging him with wire fraud, money laundering, and transportation of stolen property.Yes we didn't close a deal and yes God saved us from a future pain of unnecessary loss.
