REIA meetings are the best place to find quality buyers and wholesalers.

A lot of the backlinks on there are coming from low quality site, sites that have nothing to do with your topic, and could be in a completely different language.

Like mentioned many other places on BP, tenant screening and selection is crucial.

Make sure you open your lines of credits and credit cards now while employedA smarter thing might be: a leave of absence, converting to part time, finding people to do some of the REI stuff, like showing properties, labor, screening, etc.Lots of people don't like their jobs, until they no longer have it.

Also, spend some time to make a great ad as it's your first screening tool for tenants.I find newspaper ads too costly and it's difficult to make your property stand out in so few words.

Both are in areas with good to excellent schools (important for future resale and getting better quality renters).

Might have to contact your county commissioner.Oh yeah, with a well, you become a water provider and have to abide by certain water quality regulations and have to provide annual reports to the users.

You might touch on the quality issues as a smaller home with more features will fall in the average price as does the larger plain jane.

This way, I only have to deal with 1 person,and I would run a credit/eviction check against 1 person.The other option is to have all 3 persons sign the lease, but it seems like I would need to multiply all the work 3 times (tenant screening, trying to collect 1/3 rent from 3 persons).Are there other pros or cons to either approach?

The amount you pay for the property has absolutely nothing to do with your quality as a landlord or the quality of the tenant you will accept to stay in that property.
