If you can get a record of all the repairs done in the last few years from the seller, it may give you a better idea about how the tenant treats the property.

It has been a great confidence boost to live in a fixer upper and get comfortable with collecting rent, doing renovations, and seeing how a tenant will treat your property.

It's consistent payment and I believe if you treat people with respect most of the time they'll reciprocate.

Treat this deal like the law...innocent until proven guilty.

Looks like a foreclosure, point being people treat their own homes the same way.

They're very good and I know Clint, he's a smart lawyer and investor and passionate about what they do there.In this climate right now with what we are seeing on the litigation end, I'll just say what I always do which is to treat your business like a business and assume you will be successful in business so build the foundation that can handle that success.

When it comes to finding a brokerage that is perfect for part time agents, you want to look for a company that will treat you as an independent contractor/business rather one that sees you as an employee. 

Better to give notice as soon as I'm legally able and be consistent about it - the tenant knows what to expect, I'm able to move people as quickly as possible if necessary, and no-one can say that I'm discriminating against them by my treating anyone differently.

I treated it like any landlord and tenant relationship.
