And I want the buyers agent to tour each of them with me and write up the offers without laughing so hard they spit their coffee all over my Star Wars t-shirt.  

Many of them want to be average and feel entitled and like they are the gift but are only rock stars in their own minds.The ones that are humble and have a constant thirst for learning and to be the best without getting the big head are optimal.I would only consider taking on an agent with a 50/50 split.

I was struck by podcast #168 guest starring Cameron Skinner and have been inspired to build to rent in my market.

I have an amazing agent who is a rock star RE investor himself, if you are still looking for an agent.

Go to Yelp and see they are littered with one star reviews with the EXACT same complaints/issues as mine....

I have never had a problem with people abusing this.I also have over 50 5 star reviews on Homeaway because renters don't have to want for any basic supplies.Did someone give you a less than stellar review due to them being short a couple rolls of TP?

Hi,Looking at a duplex near blue star.

If you have a transporter like Star Trek, good for you.

Pros: low maintenance, low price tag, positive cashflowCons: rents capped at 700/mn, not going to bring in rock star tenants, not the most desirable areaThanks for the help!
