I would look at all the documents above, find out how they pay and check out any screening reports, if any, the owner performed.

We're thinking of renting out our house & purchasing another home for our primary residence. There are several property management companies in our local yellow pages. How do I choose which one is best? What shoul...

As long as you're charging market rents and not screwing them, that's your business proposition.It may not seem like much money but $25 * 10 tenants equals one dishwasher you could have replaced...5 screen doors...6 months of water...you get the idea.I hope I don't sound too cold, but I've never gotten a free $25 box of chocolates from the Ford Motor Company for buying their car...and if I did, it wouldn't make the slightest impact on my next car purchase.

Now with multis bought from a realtor you will probably run the 50% rule or your screening criteria before wasting too much time.

Similarly, does anyone really think that FM will get quality management to take care of their properties?

Does anyone find that section 8 tenants if screened right will always pay their difference ?

The system works very well, and yes changing out a cylinder is a lot faster than writing this post. 10 seconds with my hands full of other stuff (as usual).The basic locks are nothing more than builder quality - but they work fine and i wouldn't trade it for anything.Ed

That way I pre-screen all properties for my specific requirements.

There are extra requirements to quality once you get up over 6 loans with either agency.Happy to chat if you need any more info.

my dad just had a new well drilled for about 1,000. he only uses it for lawn irrigation as he gets county water for other purposes.not sure how deep they had to go (it's florida so water isnt too deep). as far as filtration systems, the water quality is pretty rough here in my neck of the woods. i have a sofener for my everyday water (showering, etc) and a RO (reverse osmosis) for potability. i'm a bit of a water conniseur. that's what i drink 99% of the time.i'd suggest ensuring a decent water system as bad water can really harm plumbing/piping.Good luck on tues!!!!
