There's a lot of room to grow (recording all calls, getting transcripts, sending SMS messages with the directions to your office, etc.The model does require that you leverage one of their numbers, either a toll-free or a number local in your area, but the cost is reasonable.

I have delt with jerk tenants before, and did my yelling and screaming, but sometimes you have to pick your battles, and death is not worth a rent check.

Will there be any benefits to it later when they pass it onto me after their deaths?

,If they inherited it there may be some basis in it as the basis is increased to the FMV on the date of death.

Second reason: I plan on leaving the property to my wife to provide income for the family's support in the event of my pre mature death She is ill suited to manage properties and I would prefer professional management in this case.

Don't work yourself to death or you won't be able to enjoy your great investments Rich.It's nice to see someone really cranking out the deals though.

I would like to interject my opinion/concern with this type of investment under the hypothetical that it was plausable (marketable to find them, etc).Here are my concerns: A seller wanting to exit from a LLC or LP and sell there shares usually stems from their unhappiness with the operation and with the other partner(s) involved and as such could be your underlining risk that would be a deal kiler for me. if it was running smoothly and you ran into a great scenario where the one partner needed to sell due to financial trouble, medical expenses, death in family, etc, then you could have a situation wheer you could buy into a good partnership at a great discount.

tenants will lie to the death or until the sheriff comes to put them out, even then they will claim they left on their own and wanted the sheriff there so you won't attack them because your the crazy one!

I was working Death Certificates for a while (targeting the "Mail To:" names), but then I started up the mobile home referral thing, and just showed probate the door.

If that is the case, it is usually best to sell the properties, before you bleed to death.
