., I left Anderson for a small firm that will do the actual taxes and then another company that specializes in tax strategy. 

To add value to the property, we undertook extensive renovations including the removal of over 40 yards of trash, installation of a new septic system and wall-hung boiler, and a new well pump.

Quote from @Dan Huang: @Tyler Sweet I am a firm believer in the disruptive value of blockchain technology and decentralization, and a crypto-friendly realtor in Las Vegas. 

The key difference, though, was he spent months carefully getting to know the local architecs, reputable builders, and even a couple of niche design firms that specialize in modern builds for mid- to high-end buyers.

I also know of several law firms who have not been paid in over a year then will not work for them any longer.  

Can anyone recommend a firm that does not use Lexis Nexis for background checks?

My understanding is that it adds people/entities to the chain but does not remove anyone.

But, you'll need to get with an REI-savvy bookkeeper/firm to help you set it up since it's not an REI-specific software.

For instance, if he paid $40,000 to buy a house and sold it for $80,000 with $10,000 down, he could keep $10,000 in reserve  and tap into it to hire attorney, file eviction case , remove defaulting buyer/tenant and continue paying off investor loan (if he used PML to buy that house) while looking for the next buyer to sell it.

You can be firm while still being kind.
