He gives in once you push hard enough, and he's aware you've lawyered up.Also, never EVER use Maverick Investments https://maverickinvestorgroup.com/ We'd heard ABC might be a challenge, and so we chose Maverick because they said they'd have our back.

@Eric Jacobs this is great advice, we looked at other markets a couple of years ago and shied away because of the complications- and now we feel like we're kicking ourselves for not going for it- but it does bring a lot of challenges.

Texas is landlord friendly but you will have additional challenges managing from Boston.  

Its definitely a challenge.

I always see comments about the challenges of the LA market, but this totally blows that out of the water. 

It was the “90 Day Challenge” episode titled: “How to Buy Your First (or Next) Rental Property by the End of the Year.”For example in the sections regarding checking a property out they talked about due diligence items like calling utility companies to check for outstanding debts or checking the property for liens.I plan on working closely off of this episode but I figured I should check the forums first to see if anyone has seen an existing checklist like this anywhere that I could build upon?
