It was a great meeting, and I was invited to attend a weekly meeting that he hosts at his house.

They often invite speakers to cover topics related to REI. 

This post is meant for my accounting colleagues - an invitation to debate, basically.Let's consider scenarios.1.

Landlords who open doors for free, invite problems on themselves. 

Will pass info along and invite to BP..

My second event i went on Craigslist to find an ad came across an ad saying Become a real estate investor earn while you learn, thought i give it a shot this guy was telling me about Renatus and great mentors they had he invited me to a meeting in south jersey on a Thursday night to watch a guy name scott rowe who has made millions of dollars off real estate education, before i went i had to research what renatus was and who these people the guy was telling me about needless to say i was skeptical about rowe and this guy name brian meara they said he does shortsales and i ask the guy who invited me what shortsale was and he said the host will tell me, sounded like he didnt know what it was either, for the most part all he said was that this was an opportunity of a life time, wasn't sold on that either so i sat there for about an hour and 20 minutes listening to scott say he was from Chicago show me picture of  his community a pie chart how to get into renatus how to pay for very expensive education how to get the money blah blah blah caught in quick that this was an mlm meetup.

@Beth CannonHere in NJ for extended cold weather the system stops providing heat as there are no heat elements in the atmosphere to extract from.

For example, we get a tenant who seems wonderful but ends up inviting her boyfriend or other family member who smokes and has a pit-bull to live with her halfway through the lease without telling us.

@Eric GiovannucciThank you for the invite.  

I don't do "pre-screenings" since I just invite them to stop by the open house but I do let them know what my basic requirements are.
