Brady,When I do my screening for new tenants I would weight the rental history the most.  

Good luck, you are a busy man with school, family and baseball.Likely your best bet is house hacking (if your partner and child are willing to share housing). 

We had it for our kids while going to school .

I did have a relative living there and my wife went to school there so I had some familiarity with the city. 

I predict that the guys who are fully leveraged and cash flowing $100 per month will be motivated sellers when the next big correction happens.actually its either them or they walk and its their lenders selling that is what happened in that time period.. and was pronounced in certain markets.for me personally  I don't want to risk  my credit and finances and borrow 75k to make 1200 a year... or even 2400 a year if its a market that has a history of no appreciation and I don't feel there is going to be any significant appreciation.. 2 to 3% a year does not cut it.but I will take 500 a month negative or 10k a month negative if I think there are huge gains at the other end.. 

After high school, I pursued a career in the military, where I proudly served for seven years.

My 17-year-old daughter is still in high school, but she saved up $20,000 in 14 months as a waitress in a town of 10,000.

Also illegal for the entire school year, if the tenant has kids in school. 

Last week was one of the best in the history of the portfolio if that tells you anything.I also have real estate connections in the country if anybody wants to connect.

They are in their very early 20s they both are full-time employed, but the husband does not have any credit history at all.
