It would be a giant headache for you. 2) The gentleman's previous criminal history or history on public housing programs is bad enough where he isn't eligible for assistance, and can't be placed on a voucher.

I have already done business with @Dick Rosen - anyone looking for a property manager in the Phoenix area should be talking to Dick.Looking forward to adding value to this community.Shine on,Jack Martin

This is just another piece of the giant puzzle I'm trying to put together.

Unless you forsee some giant housing collapse, then it's always a good time to buy.

I'm looking into a duplex right now but there is a giant red flag with the utilities...The tenants pay the gas but the landlord is responsible for water, sewer and electric. 

@Dick Rosen if that is a weak subject for you I think it would be better to bring on your spouse or a partner for such a task.  

@Dick Rosen In California, a "month-to month" is called a rental agreement and a "fixed term" is called a lease.

Squabbling over that tiny itty bitty 6% pie, and getting 1/4 of it (half of half of one commission), isn't going to be nearly as big of a win as getting 3% or 4% of that big giant 94% pie.Now, let's suppose you weren't a FTHB.

After all, they don't call real estate a "giant get-rich-slow-scheme" for nothing:)Figure: Behold the cliff.
