Most of my deals come after months of mailing my prospects.One other thing that I would recommend is to increase the number of prospects that you are mailing to for 2 reasons - 1) DM is a numbers game so the more people you get in front of, the better the odds, 2) Assuming that you are a new investor, it's going to take you some time to get good at talking to sells and identifying a good deal so you will get up to speed much quicker.Good luck!

." - this was for the vacant unit I was currently cleaning etc..This was surprising considering I wasn't previously notified of any lease, any prospective lease, any Section 8 inspections etc..I spoke with a representative of the management company on the phone and asked for a copy of the new lease, of which they refused.

There are a lot of things in rehabbing that you simply don't know; that said, don't let it deter you.

See my comment and the thread on BP for "Trust-Funding, Inc".PPS - They just emailed me again as I'm writing this comment... same company, different guy (as if I have forgotten them in the four hours it's been since they last emailed me the exact same prospect welcome email).

Also considered Big Bear City and closer to the lake but was deterred against that by multiple professionals.

Tenant can inform lessor of intent to move, at which point lessor will immediately mitigate and work with the tenant to re-rent the unit through advertising, arrangement of showings, and vetting of prospect tenants.

If they are not aligned then simply keep looking till you find one that is.I would look up NARPM and start with them..Below are some questions I would think would be a good starting point for you to see who really treats their company like a business or a hobby.My business partner is a regional VP for NARPM and I am happy to help if you need anything please reach outQuestions to Ask prospective management companies* What are your average days on market for vacant homes?

You then market the property to prospective tenant/buyers. 

The landlord has a right to show the unit to prospective tenants....it doesn’t matter if it fits your schedule or if you aren’t home.Also so you know, “30 days notice” doesn’t mean just 30 days, it typically means at least 30 days notice Before the 1st of the month, effective the 1st of the following month (not 30 days notice given on the 5th of the month for the 5th of the following month).If they improperly keep part of your deposit you take them to small claims court.

You will have your business there, so you should be onsite all the time to address issues as they come up and always available to show it to prospective tenants.
