What if the home burns down in that time?

@Robert Burns I'm sorry I can't opine on his program, I don't know enough about it. 

There was a case in Ontario where the tenants had a fire pit and one of their guests fell into it, thus being severely burned.

I usually do my own, but now have a friend buying who got burned on his last inspection, and wants someone experienced and thorough. 

The fee will weed out the unwanted people. 

Every once in a while, I'll get a house that has its share of no shows and that will burn me up a little.

Unless you change that thinking, you'll find it very difficult to grow and you will burn out quickly...Three - while it is not impossible to succeed at building big CF with pigs, 99% of the time wealth is created through something called Bridging of Equity or leveraging of Appreciating Assets.  

I say that being each and every time "I" have been burned

If you both go on the loan, then you are burning up 2 of the 8 easy spots instead of 1.....

But there are still a ton of nuggets that you can pick up from just about every single one.And the other real value is that its really easy to get a little burned out in investing and get into a lull because of how slow things tend to move.
