@Calvin ThomasThank you for that sharing that info.

Then, I would share with them how you manage properties and what your expectations are for them as well as you - essentially explaining how you work with people renting from you.

I dont do 100% development but have done my fair share over the years. 

Can you share more on this?

If his landlord reference for the past five years is good, that would weigh much heavier than his eviction.Based on what you've shared, I think this is a low-risk situation, and I would probably accept them with a deposit equal to one month of rent.

Sometimes, they have off-market opportunities that they can share with their contacts.

I don't have any experience in Augusta, but if you are interested in Detroit or Memphis, happy to connect and knowledge share.

@Joshua Hively dredging up this dead thread to see if you still have those connections and would be willing to share?

Just having the CPA allows me to ask these types of questions to make sure I am maximizing my deductions but following the law.I have more examples to share and discuss if interested just DM me.

On paper other areas of the city have much higher cashflow but they come with their fair share of hassles.
