For reference, I am self-employed (I run my own online clothing business, i am 1099-k) and I've always been told that it'll be hard for me to get a conventional mortgage when you're self employed, so I am specifically asking about other types of loan options.  

I do not use craigslist, just a personal choice.  

I don't belong, but its pretty much the only in person one around.

Keep in mind a deal for one person might not be a deal for another based on the strategy they are using to build their portfolio. 

All depends on guest avatar, personal preference, and the ROI an investor is looking for.

I currently have a home warranty on my personal home, and have always been un-happy with it.

If they are built prior to 1978, they were not regulated and didn't meet code, so they are referred to as "mobile" homes.

Personally, since 2018, I've viewed over 2700 properties for clients.

@Richard Benjamin WilhiteRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

Any guidance is gladly accepted and welcomed.Thanks,NickDo you know if this person has the money?
