I am filing a suit in Orange County Superior Court and along with reporting to following government entity.

You file for eviction and they employ multiple delay tactics that extend your court case 3-6 months without batting an eye, all while not paying rent.

Depending on the complexity of the deal, you can have a few revisions, negotiations to the contract.To me, the focus of the calls is to gauge whether or not the seller is motivated to sell, and if it fits into my buy box, and the price fits my return criteria.

They often come with fewer complexities than multi-family (especially as a first investment) and can offer great appreciation and cash flow opportunities.

Hostaway seems interesting as potentially something with the power of Ownerrez but without the challenging interface and complexity. 

If there’s any equity get your lawyer in to court and try to place a lien on them. 

It depends on the number of Units, Residential or Commercial, Apartment Complex or mix of Single Family and Multifamily.Under 25 unit - Tenant Cloud, Rentech.Under 100 - Then Doorloop/Buildium.100+ - AppFolio, Yardi, Rent Manager.Apartment Management : Yardi seems to be wildly usedSingle Family ( Mixed ) - AppFolio seems to be popularRent manager has a good customer support team.

Here is a subset of court cases..... 

So even if you pick a state with stronger protections like WY or NV, the cause of action arose in the state where the tenant fell, so likely that the court where the accident happened would have jurisdiction.

Wholesalers typically do not carry Errors and Omissions (E/O) insurance, so even if the court rules in your favor, they might not have the financial means to compensate you.Furthermore, ensure that a reputable title company handles the transaction, as some companies may cut corners.
