It takes trial and error, failing and correcting, eating crap than having to get back up, but the best part is if your in it to really win it, than everything will just be a learning experience. 

We simply got tired of arranging for inspections, then replacing perfectly good handrails because they weren't the proper height, and so on, and so on. 

We have flippers who simply move the furniture from home to home.   

You simply can not invest without cash.

foundations are pretty common issues i have found in Texas and other parts of the deep south.issue is how extensive do you need to cut water sewer lines.. patch cracks in the walls then repaint etc.some areas are simply worse than others.. and some builders got away with minimum foundation thickness that will be a constant problem..  

But simply put, if they've been good tenants, and they've even actually asked you about the guest, just thank them for letting you know about it, and say that you'll check back in with them in August or so to confirm his departure.Also, rent should not be based on the number of occupants.

@Chris Mason You win the comment of the day.

The bank has approved my winning bid and the contracts are all signed.The house went through Judicial foreclosure in May of 2017.  

Yep, the goal of the course is to simply Pass The Test, it teaches you very little about the Business.

You'll simply end up turning away too many prospective tenants.
