Also, I would recommend adding some sort of screensaver to the TV screen and I second that a professional photographer is the way to go.

Time, Quality, or Price- you get two out of the three.

.- Stick to B and C+ Areas: These neighborhoods balance affordability and tenant quality, minimizing risk.- Analyze Properties Remotely: Use tools like BiggerPockets calculators to evaluate deals.

Every customer is assigned to a group of team members there and I imagine each team varies slightly in quality given the human element!

@Sakib KhanRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

As far as Lance Kawaoka's claim that the reason there wasn't much response to a post about checking on the quality of a large, well-known, super-markety sponsor is that members wouldn't want to declare that they are a high net worth individual just doesn't hold water.

From what I’ve heard, there are reputable local management companies in regions like San Antonio or Omaha that handle everything from screening tenants to arranging quick repairs.

So, the first question they usually ask a PMC is about fees - instead of asking about services and HOW those services are executed.EXAMPLE: PMC states they will handle tenant screening – what does that specifically mean?

We purchased July 23, it’s a remorseful purchase in terms of quality (new build, got a 5% interest rate). 100% NOT our forever home. 

We will quickly correct the excess spending, and fill the vacant units with quality residents.
