My horror story of BY FAR the worst inherited tenants: the guy was a drug dealer and he and his girlfriend were on heroin.

If you were in the same city, I would say to try and independent appliance dealer.

Can you imagine getting an ad from a car dealer that didn’t have their address or phone #?

But shady dealers and government regulators made it illegal to even call them at that stage of the game in some areas. 

@Matthew Irish-Jones Thanks Matthew!

If you end up submetering your water, I use Kamstrup, about $180 a pop just for the meter but they are real quality tangible product with a 40 year capacitor, need to find a dealer near you. meters are wireless and get a charge from the water moving through them . picks up the signal well to my PC. 

@Matthew Irish-Jones this should be put under the education tab for new investors to see.

If you're not a broker dealer, you should certainly talk with a securities attorney about how to make sure you're keeping everything legal. 

I know on flips it is considered traditional income due to being classified as a dealer (someone who buys for the profit of the sale) and not an investor (someone who buys for the profit from rental or other forms of income) but what if you bought and renovated a property and held it for one or two 12-month leases?

And she also told me there were dealers hustling on the corner of the same block.
