My background in print design and creative marketing has definitely helped me streamline these campaigns, and working at one of the largest print houses here in CO has greatly helped in regards to cost of farming out addresses and designing/producing the mail pieces, and even with postage.Feel free to reach out to me and throw any questions my way! 

Most states define these in a very similar way but you should consult a real estate attorney in your state to confirm.

My collegues here think "it's a scam" "it'll never replace REITs"  First it's not a scam I tell them, and REITs were designed as tax shelters not investments.  

If you are going to decline on the eviction and it doesn't specifically identify your applicant, you need to confirm the eviction either with the county or the tenant before acting upon it. 

If you guys paid cash for the property & want to avoid borrowing funds, but need money to pay the contractor & start producing income, then you could possibly do a lease option (aka rent to own) allowing the tenant/ buyer to choose design elements or have input on the design (so that they feel they're getting some kind of customization & added value), this would be of course AFTER collecting an NROC fee, (Non-Refundable Option Consideration - not a down payment but gives them the right to purchase at a future date - usually 3-5 yrs) typically anywhere between 5%- 10% of the market value of the property.

A tax person should confirm or deny that though. 

Learn how to run comps and analyze deals the best you can (search on the BP blog for 65% rule for wholesalers) and then when you think one might be a good deal, bring it to the investor who has agreed to purchase the property, and ask him to confirm your comps and give you feedback.10.

If they are down to drop PMI without refinancing, and you are given the choice between paying for a cheap BPO or drive by appraisal, and a more expensive full appraisal, to confirm your equity position, pay for the full actual appraisal.

Can any confirm that this is a problem or provide any ideas to get this remedied other than repairing the drywall prior to the loan?

So I've been studying the state of the art, best tools & practices in Property Management, especially curious about Work Network development and proactive, preventive maintenance.What I've been surprised to discover is that the best PM platforms are full-blown accounting systems, designed to replace the likes of QuickBooks which has been so popular for so long.The thing I'm wondering is, if real estate investors are well diversified, they're probably doing a lot more than just investing in real estate.
