Hey @Thanh Lu, so you didn't say where you are located so it is important to check down to the city level what constitutes a tenant vs guest.Most often it is 30 days or more, but there are some that state 28 days or even more vague for squatters rights.

You can also check their reviews online at Google, Facebook, or Yelp.

I have not personally tried the Wire feature though.I am an Accountant and use it and refer my clients to it as well, connect with me and I will look to see what the costs are to send a wire, they do allow free check and ACH payments if timing is not a factor.I had a client who used Titan, and as an Accountant I did not like it.

If the cost of rehabbing it is more than it’s insured for, they’ll just cut me a check for what it’s insured for minus the $2,500 deductible.

@Michael Whitman very good point and something to check on ahead of taking the loan.

In CA (my market) the seller is required to make honest disclosure statement and you can collect for material non-disclosure.I suspect you already have learned that you need to check the status of all permits. 

i just got off the phone with lindsay someone that works for them they want $34k and they offer no guarntees. thave a 78% success rate in getting people funding. that mean 22% of the prople that signed up where promised the world but were not able to raise capital. according to linday they have 700 paid members. 700x.22=154. 154 people paid them $34k and were not able to raise funds. im not an expert but they need to file a case with the attorney generals of the united states. i asked lindsay why isnt capital raising set 1 because ill pay you $34k from the money you help me raise. all of a sudden she is busy and got to hang up with me. i told her i gave you 1 objection and she gave up.i did not have a good feeling speaking with lindsay. and after the call i checked my email she sent me 2 emails. 1 minute apart from each other which tells me they will take anyone and everyone. as long as they pay $34k.

Even after renting, you should check the market every month or so to keep an eye on prices, vacancy rates, etc.
