If the damage the house-- whether it's 1 person there or 7--, you have a security deposit to make the needed repairs due to damage they cause.I would at least want all persons over 18 screened and on the lease, whether they move in now or later.

John, I would check the quality of the wood after sanding.

The single biggest piece of advice I have is that you conduct a thorough screening of any prospective tenant.

I did a walk through with each to make sure they were quoting similar scope and materials, as well as to get a feel for experience, quality, integrity etc.

Its hard to screen college students.I think yours is worse as it is a bit vague.

I go solely for quality.

Sell your guns, ammo and gold and buy quality dividend paying stocks and/or cash flowing real estate.

GOOD DEALS.Learn enough to get out there and start having seller's call you, filter enough leads and you will find the quality ones, get contracts.

I was glued to the screen as if I was hooked on a new video game or something :)I'm here in SoCal, investing out-of-state as well.

But a couple significant things that turnkey providers are exceptionally good at (or should be) are 1. finding deals, more specifically being able to negotiate insanely good deals so as to maximize their profits later, and 2. being able to rehab thoroughly and to a nice quality but very cost effectively.
