Congrats navigating to that screen so quickly. 

Also you can’t squeeze blood out of a rock or water or whatever it is you squeeze.  

Go to BUILD YOUR TEAM at the top of the screen and look for local investors or meetups in your area.

As long as you are screening the tenants/animals well and conducting inspections, I think you'll be fine.

I am in the process of screening a potential tenant, he told me he had a felony from 15 years, he offered to explain but I didn't wanna push unless necessary. 

It's a great way to learn in real life and off the screen.

Definitely check their ID (FB is full of fake profiles) and screen thoroughly.... many, many scams out there right now. 

The heavy cleaning and repair costs after longer stays are definitely pain points but I've seen my clients make it work by screening the tenants more carefully for MTRs, doing bi-monthly checks to catch issues early, and writing clear lease terms about maintaining the property.

Our renters were great, emphasizing tenant screening process, and returned the home in great condition.

You should be have experience vetting and screening.
