Any property that is listed on a Realtor owned MLS, regardless if the agent is a Realtor themselves, will have to sign a buyer agency agreement if they want to be shown a property in the MLS.The DOJ is likely to also impose this rule on non-Realtor MLS systems as well, but we arnt quite there yet.

I have started screening after the realtor screens them and tell the rules, setting expectations upfront.

Keep your common areas clean and neat, possibly have a house cleaner come in twice a month for these areas if your budget allows it, have solid house rules that you enforce regarding at a minimum quiet hours, parking, smoking, pets, and visitors just for starters and be sure to run it like a business and decide if you will have month to month terms, 6 month terms or yearly terms.

Not easy to start but very scalable once you're up and running.

One thing I do not care for is that the communication with tenants is not easy to do on the platform. 

Our rule of thumb is 3-6 months.

If you've truly struck a great bargain finding a buyer or partner for the deal is the easy part. 

There are a lot of wholesalers who are buying lists of properties in foreclosure / default and do not realize this in many states is considered predatory.As taxes and insurance increase along with homeowners having equity, states will start to catch on to this and my guess is start going after more of these wholesalers.It will be an easy win for them as most wholesalers act as brokers illegally (do not do double close) and do not let the homeowner know all the options available to them (modifications/ bankruptcy), they are out to solely benefit in their behalf which in itself is predatory

They met at The Speak Easy.  

I would lay out the rules and implement that in the lease agreement in which I do for my month to month tenants.
