I am worried about working on the house due to the fact that it was built in the 1930's and a some of the construction was literally done with logs ( yes actual logs) instead of lumber.

that area is one of the areas of rural or semi rural Washington that was or has been in steep decline with the decline in the fishing industry and logging industry.. and so its an area you can find those beater houses that work for BRRR.. that used to be the case in Longview but that's got spill over from PDX finally and prices have really firmed up but its a tough rental crowd .. don't kid yourself..

It's a fantastic book and extremely helpful.I will try to log in again soon if you have any other questions.

Looking for something the prospective tenant can use easily to log in, pay the fee, and the report gets sent back to me.

I am / was in the timber business in the NW west and sent LOTS of logs to Japan over my career.. so have a little bit of understanding.. not an expert.. plus when you say a home. in Tokyo that could be literally a 50 sq ft little box  LOL literally. 

You get texts whenever someone disarms the system, and you can log in and arm the system if someone forgot...

I logged in to BiggerPockets.com among other online real estate resources to start to learn about investing.

On my stats, my last log in says about a month ago, but I'm on here at least twice a week.

It's just a small parcel with a 800 sq ft log cabin built in the 1940s.

Along with that should come a Servicing Correspondence/Call Log and Borrower Correspondence Letters such as payment demand letters and other communications.You will likely want to check for bankruptcy actions on behalf of the borrower.
