As the rentals I own (and continue to build) are fairly turnkey I am confident I can deal with the few problems as they come up remotely; calling tradesmen to address issues, etc.

Matthew:I attempted to address crop-sharing above.  

What I usually do is hit google for lenders, accumulate about 15 names/numbers/email addresses and then contact all of them and tell them what I'm trying to put together, the best one to deal with usually presents themselves fairly quickly in my experience.

You need to see the title commitment or legal addresses to understand if there is a recorded easement for access.

If you feel it is a legit concerns I would consult with local police or other security expert to see what where the property is most vulnerable the best use of of your money is to address it.

It indicates to me that the applicant has a history of making late payments or stiffing a creditor.If the property is not generating a lot of applications, I would definitely have the applicant address the 600 credit score, review credit reports to what has been going on and see if there has been any improvement in payment pattern.

I am going to self manage & I have a couple other quick questions :I would like to set up for my tenants to only be able to pay their rent online, which website do you recommend for easy of use, efficiency for tax reporting & is the best for the cost of use?

Before making an offer study the issues you'll be facing and learn the contract provisions that address them, and how.

Also have a worksheet for bad addresses as to not keep mailing to a no good address.  

Then I have to try to find out if it's multi-tenant which is sometimes impossible and involves a bunch of Google searching with the address to see if multiple suite numbers show up or tenant names appear in Yelp, and occasionally finding it on the Property Tax website.
