She struck me as a genuine and nice woman (using that 6th sense that @Rolanda Eldridge talked about has been huge for me) so I took a chance and I'm very happy with my decision.Collect as much data as you can and don't ignore that gut feeling.

Be genuine and make some friends.

I have my websites that rank well over the years.If you are just starting a website most are going to word press platforms with blogs in them.The SEO platform and the way search engines see data has been changing.Blogging is like anything CONSISTENCY.Anyone can hit a home run once but to do over and over again they make millions of dollars a year.If you are a writer you will naturally enjoy writing a blog and get into it.If you are not a writer it will be a push for you to do it.In those instances maybe recording videos is more your thing and it will automatically have the text and tags attached.You could hire a ghost writer or proof reader to clean up your blog before posting to make it look professional.Some readers like though the raw and genuine nature of a blog untouched telling it like it is.The more articles,videos,blogs etc. you put out there the more of an expert you look to be which attracts more of an audience.Of course you need to back that up with referrals and recommendations from real world transactions.

But I have a genuine concern before I try to take on this venture.

But you can check with your CPA on this.I actually genuinely live in India although I am a U.S. citizen.

Yellow paper with handwriting, short simple & genuine would make the most sense to me.  

.+ Likewise, if a tenant is blatantly not even trying to pay, then blame them.Sometimes, it genuinely may be force though, I agree.

I am genuinely trying to help your situation, just trying to get the whole picture, and come up with a reasonable solution.  

I am a real estate agent, when a wholesaler is looking to make a deal they come to me for genuine comps and in return offer me the deal first.

@Dave Foster I'm genuinely surprised the IRS would consider those two properties like kind.
