The dog he would like to rescue is a German Shepherd/ black lab mix, I was wondering what your opinion would be on a dog like this.

I have 22hrs to complete my due diligence and do a drive-by on properties that meet my criteria.2)I do internet research on the properties – Building Dep, Zillow, County assessor, Alpha listing (known meth labs).

The majority of your work as a small scale landlord is in the turnover and turnaround process (think re-prepping the unit, advertising, screening, onboarding the tenant, supervising move ins and move outs; then with short term rentals multiply that by 3 or 4 per year per unit.....!)

As anyone ever signed a lease to a clinic that houses addicts with supervision?

I have a construction background so I know how to do the work and how to supervise the labor.Most of his tenants have rented from him for years, so he requested I keep them but get things in order and in force policies.I move tenants to another property to rehab the one they are in and then back.It is a lot of work but well worth it to both the owner & myself.

Lab results came back positive.

@Dusty Bowling if you have a first-class group of workers, all you need to grow is a project manager to supervise the day-to-day details of running multiple jobs and managing troop deployment.  

He also wants to get a lab puppy and train it.

Make sure it's not a meth lab or some other nasty.

Some may even use unlicensed handyman type guys to do the renovation, which still can work if you are able to supervise for quality control and have the experience to spot quality workers (be they licensed or not) ... heck, I can't even begin to tell you how many GCs in my market use these same unlicensed guys regularly as subs on their crew, especially for paint, drywall, tile, counters, finished plumbing, etc. ... maybe not so much with rough in plumbing, rough in electric, etc. where licensed guys are used more.
