Once I've done some homework on the property and everything checks out, I make sure to visit it in person.

I suppose it's more useful as a way to check things off the list and gauge how much you could spend or would like to spend.

They were able to deliver my washer/dryer no problem.What you can do is check with Lowe's or another local stores and tell them your issues.

These listings come from licensed Realtors or property managers, allowing you to check their credentials online.

I would double-check what numbers they are using to quote you (credit score, cash flow, valuation). 

Check the events pages here on BiggerPockets, local KC investing Facebook groups, and meetup dot com for real estate.

Its also more cost efficient compared to NY in terms of fee's and overall costs to set up LLC.When I set my LLC up in Fl it took literally 15 minutes and you will need to get your Tax ID/IEN set up so you can get your business checking account set up with a local FL bank. 

It is always recommended to use the LLC but in cases where you don't often check your mail then I would use my home address.

Of course, we also need to complete background checks on each tenant, including criminal, credit, and eviction checks, and a solid lease agreement too.

I will check out Pottery Barn, too.
