Thank you for your response!

We point our new Bridgeport residents to this link as a summary of the code:  https://www.jud.ct.gov/Publications/hm031.pdfBecause most will never read it,  we have a basic "Rental talk" outlining each parties responsibilities.

Hopefully you get a response and set up a sting with the police.In addition, so long as the occupants (who I hope are victims and not the perpetrators) are not up on all their RE info, you can tell them that they were duped and as sad as it is, they needed to perform their due diligence and confirm that the PM or the phony owner who scammed them were on title or not.

I've never done one before, but I hope I will get a good response rate.  

Larry thank you for your response and advise.

Whether its REI or any other category, I feel the ability to actually connect with someone is what will make me want to potentially work with them down the line.Thank you for your response!

As a long-term rental owner, I'd consider renting to you for this purpose but would definitely want a premium rent to compensate me for the risk.  

I have been listening to the Bigger Pockets podcasts ad nauseum for several months now while I work for my father (when I'm not working with clients I keep the money flowing by doing so) and one of the main things that I have taken away from all of the guests is the majorities' response to the question of "what do you think separates successful investors from those who give up, fail, or never get started with investing?"

Meaning you pay the bill but then you send an invoice to the tenant therefore making them ultimately responsible for the water that they use.

Thanks for the response.
