I posted a 3 day notice to vacate on the 19th and still hadn't heard from the tenant. 

As I stated in my original post, the major red flag is that I got the lien, in an online auction, at 16%, the maximum interest rate in a bid down state (Arizona).

Unfortunately, this is the primary reason I do not use third party vendors for rent payments, and I have posted on here a few times about this (usually when someone posts about a fraudulent clawback), despite the throng of enthusiasm for the continued use of these methods.Each one of my tenants is given a pre-designated bank account (idenitifed in the lease) to which they deposit rent. 

Hi everyoneI have been researching markets and I had mentioned in my previous post I was interested in investing in the mid west.

That's why so many REALTORS will share it via a DM instead of posting it publicly.

HMLs are a crucial short-term solution for properties needing significant repairs, and for investors not wanting all the red tape that comes with traditional products.

I've read a number over the years but most of the cities reflected have been tough to make pencil out for me post-COVID. 

I posted about this same tenant before.

Honestly that’s why I posted this because that’s the same line of thinking I had...

Many products , ie windows , have to be ordered even before permits.
