You are an intelligent young man - keep it fun, keep it interesting.Books are informative because they regurgitate information you NEED to know - some books are great because the stories teach you, reveal to you accountability, responsibility, and a lesson wrapped up in font you can take in and put yourself there.

@Alex TahnatAs soon as people see a sign that says “ we buy houses” they immediately want to regurgitate.

Don't just listen but take notes and regurgitate what you have learned so that it sticks. 

The majority realize it's extremely difficult regurgitating bad deals to investors who have already passed on them at a lower price point.

If you've decided a credit score of 600 is your minimum, then ask yourself why you believe you would deviate from that standard (this is me regurgitating from @Brandon Turner's The Book on Managing Rental Properties).

One thing I've noticed is a few folks must have the same "City" keyword alert as well....they consistently post the same regurgitated reply to anyone asking about said city.Is there a way to block this person or persons response when they use said City in their reply to the topic from popping up as a keyword alert?

CoStar regurgitates what the brokers tell them.  

That could be it, but more than likely they're just emailing out regurgitated lists hoping to get a sales contract from someone, then present it to the seller, if it's still available and work out an assignment fee on the back end. 

People want to decree something as fact and regurgitate the standard party line when there's no basis in fact whatsoever. 

I think you are getting some great advice in here.I agree with most of what @Rob Belandand @Ray H. have said.Won't regurgitate all the same stuff so will just add a few details and places where I have different thoughts.Yes you can ask for leases with proper notice, or ask for formal TAW agreements to be signed and either of those can include a rent increase if you are inclined to do that.One thing to keep in mind for notice is that it is 1 month or 30 days, whichever is longer.
