What I do see is that a strong screening process improves your chances of getting a responsible resident. 

Thanks in advance for your response and knowledge!

Thank you for your response. 

If the seller isn't responsive, then do like the idea of telling the tenant you tried, and see if they can get some free legal assistance from a tenant resource center.It is a good reminder as closing approaches to ask the seller to keep tenants updated on the pending sale and when ownership is scheduled to change.

For example,  providing a heating source for your tenant is your responsibility as the landlord. 

But if you were not a real estate professional and you have a W-2 income and a dividend and interest income, you would be taxed 37% on the combine of both the W-2 income and the dividend and interest income ($600K).It's still good to get accurate information from more experience professional to get more points of views and figure out what you can do in your situation.I hope you can find this very helpful in making your investing decisions. 

Looking forward to the responses on this!

I have found them to be very responsive to my questions. 

It’s great that you’ve already identified zip codes like 73128, 73170, and 73135; they all have unique advantages worth exploring.I agree with the earlier response—73170 and 73135 are solid picks.

Her immediate response was, “What do I get out of this?”
