We returned her security deposit when we purchased the property last year so we shouldn't have any issues there.

I'd tend to the website, design and development wise (especially security).

We are a real estate private investigative firm that locates owners, assets, background history, tenant screenings and more.

I am looking to start a group with newer agents in the area so we can pool our knowledge and shorten the learning curve so we all can close a lot of sales so we do not become statistics haha, hit me up privately if you are interested in networking and learning together.

I'm looking for private and hard money lenders in the Atlanta area.

After seeing house twice, signing 1 year lease, tenant started moving things in and decides the basement smells "too mildewy" and not liveable.She wants  her 1 month security deposit back.

Here is the deal, we sent out direct mail and got a ton of leads, this is one.House: Duplex 3 bedrooms 1 bathroom downstairs/1 bedroom 1 bathroom upstairs, 2 stall detached garage, owner states not a lot of repairs needed (maybe $2,000 total)Current Rent: $1,225 totalHouse assessed at $96,000Current owner owes $52,000Wholesale offer (from our formula that would make sense for us to buy it wholesale): $53,000 cash - owner declined (too low)If we keep it to rent out do we get a hard or private money loan to purchase for a higher cash offer (we think he would take $70,000) and then take it to the bank after a certain amount of time to get a conventional loan because we will have almost 30% equity in it when we buy it?

He is in the process of getting the cash together via private lending, by next week.  

Most Property Managers do charge for tenant renewal or the initial securing of the tenant (normally one full month rent).

This would allow us to complete the rehab using personal lines/private money and then set up traditional financing after 1 year of collecting rents.
