But, since you're on a month to month contract, if you want to leave, you just have to give 30 days notice.Then, they (the complainers) will usually find a few maintenance things they want fixed, just to flex their muscles a bit, which we would take care of, and then everybody calms down again.I also never had anyone move over an increase.  

Do I understand correctly that I erentpayments.com allows ach debit allowing the landlord total control (tenant can not cancel the auto deduct from their account without landlord approval)?

I'm in the approval process to accept ACH payments. 

Another option is have them get a NetSpend card or a similar prepaid debit card that allows ACH debits and they can use that with a payment service, such as PayPal or a rent payment service.  

I use ACH to get my rent and have only had ONE late in over 9 years.Today I am 'semi-retired' and still don't have much to do with my properties.  

Ask if the parents are paying and get whoever is paying on ACH.

The low prices can be tempting but I think many of those investments may cause more head aches than the profit they can produce. 

But you do not have to flex that muscle.

Like working out at a Gym to build muscle you must leave one comfort zone for heavier weights, e.g. put down the 20# dumbbells and pick up the 25# dumbbells and then the 30# dumbbells.1031 Exchanging is no different.

Like anything, it's not about the game it's about the practice so you have muscle memory to make the right decision in the game without thinking.If you look at anyone at the top of their field they have some type of coach and/or mentor, no brainer in my opinion.
