If you were competing against us... a friendly respectful, professional-behaving couple that didn't monthly harass them like a desperate maniac you will lose.4.

His method of operating seems to be to literally harass/beg the investor into wiring money. 

He literally harassed me over the phone after I told him multiple times that I wasn't loaning him money. 

(to harass my plumber/contractor) (The plumber left me hanging a few years ago so he fixed the problem for free, she has NO need for his contact info)  I sent her pictures of the damage and offered her the $50 cleaning fee back.  

Don't continually harass them with phone calls or emails.

You are just starting out. you want to invest out of state, not locally.You want to skirt/evade the law.You want to engage in a rent model that requires a hands on referee at all times, remotely.You want a rent model that has strangers living with each other, raping/murdering/stealing from/harassing each other, without any ability to intervene.  

I have relationships with my contractors and don't need/want a tenant who caused damages harassing them because they are unhappy they didn't get 100% of their deposit back. 

As well as received harassing emails asking why the invoice wasn’t paid.

Especially if the tenant claims harassment.

In NYC, there's what is called a Letter of No Harassment which must be on record from tenants since often the owner wants to kick out inhabitants to renovate and boost rent and their profit.
