@Kyle CarterAsk about their communication style, does it fit with yours? 

I rented to ACU students and used the rent by the room method.

However, it was not something that we planned on and I did not have any sort of communication prior to with that particular poster planning to highlight their services. good point Joe will have to see if I can see that kind of behavior..

Communication with the tenants is key.

I would work on my communication of my processes including letting them know asap of their schedule with me.

Not the most scalable method, but I like the benefits it affords me while I am still a smaller operation.Completing 500 builds in just over 10 years is impressive for someone who just sorta fell into it.

AS noted we have two small positions and communication is very good reports are on time K 1s are on time.. of course we will see how it all ends up .. but for day to day operations compared to the horror stories you are hearing about other syndicators they are doing very well.Thanks!

Also, clear communication with your parents about goals, risks, and expectations will also help avoid tension.
