He's a candidate for identity fraud.But on the ladies, here's my advice: (I mean, on renting to the ladies, other issues with ladies - don't listen to a word I say, or better, listen and do the opposite. )OK - I've had many of these 2 or 3 adult arrangements, sisters, roomies, woman, Mom and Cousin, and here's the bottom line difference between success and failure, in my humble opinion:It is, if there is or isn't ONE key person in the group, that "runs" the household, talks with you, requests maintenance, gathers rent from others and forwards all of it to you, and as several of my "key people" if you will call them, have done, re-rented parts of the house when one of their roomies left.I've got one "key person" that has "run" the house for 8 years, always dealing with the revolving door of roomies - place looks fine, and it's occupied, and all I ever have to do is return his calls when the _ _ _ _ _ isn't working.Another story that amazed me- Karen - main person with her aunt and cousin as roomies.

Zach, I am going through the identical situation.

It seems that Zillow has only 1 property that is almost identical, the rest are not really comparable.

Certainly a comp that matches the subject property identically in size and bed/bath combos does not count if it is 15 miles away and closed a year ago.My advice (in addition to learning how appraisals are done) is to learn your market in and out including knowing what each variety of homes and their combinations sell for.

I got there and the HVAC was not only operable but brand new (furnace, AC and the cage to keep the thieves away!).

Purchase price: $118,175 Cash invested: $26,900 I have moved out of my first duplex I was house hacking after purchasing another almost identical duplex on the same decommissioned air force base.

Tenant’s Maintenance ResponsibilitiesTenant will: (1) keep the premises clean, sanitary, and in good condition and, upon termination of the tenancy, return the premises to Landlord in a condition identical to that which existed when Tenant took occupancy, except for ordinary wear and tear: (2) immediately notify Landlord of any defects or dangerous conditions in and about the premises of which Tenant becomes aware: and (3) reimburse Landlord, on demand by Landlord, for the cost of any repairs to the premises damaged by Tenant or Tenant’s guests or business invitees through misuse or neglect.

Landlord insurance is typically 10% to 20% more than home owner’s insurance.The following table shows the effect of just property tax and insurance on cash flow for an “identical” property in three different locations.

I suspect with all the identity theft going on, people are reluctant submit applications, to persons unknown.I recently re-rented my property through Craigslist, Zillow, which includes Trulia.

So I have an Agent I've been working with to run comps for me, interesting thing is her comps frequently put the property 20-30k above my ARV's everytime, just like wholesalers I see out there who are trying to misslead people.For example she recently sent me comps of a property that had an average ARV around 140k, the problem is every property on her list had nearly double the square footage, so these aren't even accurate comps at all.I use a program that allows me to search the MLS and runs comps for me and I feel like I'm pretty thorough in keeping square footage within a couple hundred feet, bedrooms and baths nearly identical and factoring in certain amenities like pools,garages ect ect.Do you feel like this Agent simply doesn't know what she's doing?
