Typically it is 24 hours' notice.If they are still in the place and don't pay rent Feb 1, start the eviction process.

Once you've found a trustworthy team, the process of scaling becomes much smoother.

Process has been relatively smooth so far.

I am trying to get a HELOC in place just in case of an unforseen emergency expense (AC, roof, hot tub etc) and I am a little confused on the process. 

The easier the rehab the smoother the process Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I do it for a lot less than that, but I’ve streamlined the process.

Another issue is that out of state investors seldom bother to protest their taxes which is an essential part of the process each year...if you don't push back, that's on the investor.

It's like there's a background process in my mind always running, always alert for a possible call or issue that might arise.I work remotely in a demanding job, and I value my free time deeply, especially given the flexibility of my profession.

@Lore Postman @Miles Gastil Lore's process works well but keep in mind that the Registered Agent and the owner are often two different things.  

What would be a nice step by step process?
