So really need to do some deep market research, haha, but not so willing to pay for this, at least not at this stage when I'm just starting out.

But it is a heck of a lot of incentive to do whats BEST in interest of a Landlord, which is getting high quality tenant with low occurrence of issues that operates on cruise control of consistency and quality care of property, for a duration. % based, it's just about getting bodies in and keeping them in, and that's done by taking the first most desperate trash off the street who says they'll pay. 

Now having a trust to avoid probate, care for young children or folks not ready to inherit large sums of money yet are very good reasons to have trusts.

I would be very careful in working with a 1031 Exchange Qualified Intermediary that provides ("sells"0 replacement property solutions as part of their services. 

As for the zip code you mentioned, some of the areas in there are nice due to steady rental demand, you just want to be very careful on the neighborhoods you select as some areas will be better than others.

It also depends if your tenants have good credit they care about.

I called back again and asked for the Supervisor and 2 weeks later still no call.Based upon my experience, I would strongly urge anyone to be very careful doing business with Ron LeGrand or Financial Freedom.

Also, not sure what relationship you have established with your property manager but typically people hire managers to take care of this part and be tenant-facing.
