Of course I recognize that soon I will be forced to take in pets because people are simply having their cats, gerbils and dogs certified as service animals...Hiking the rent by $400? 

I think there may be some exceptions to the 60 day rule as well, but I will leave that for an expert.

@Jen Pothilat I would suggest talking to a 1031 expert / real estate attorney but one way is for the title to the property be held as tenants in common.

This doesn't mean I wont become an expert in my market, but I wont worry about outside factors that I cant control that might affect the economy.   

If your insurance company says it is going to defend you, I would let them as its their job.I would stay out of it and tell the tenant to address it with the insurance company.It may suck for the tenant, but you are running this as a business and your experts are saying it is not you.yes - you should plan on evictingyes - your PM company should be filing a police report and going after tenant for damages...not after you.

Certified home inspections

@Jeff Ullig  I am not an expert in this realm  but I do know there is a limit on the number of loans you can have.

It's possible for something to meet the 1% rule and still be a crappy investment (certain townhomes come to mind).I'm not an expert on flipping but 30% seems like a thinner margin than I would be comfortable with.

Lets ask the experts for their input if they would ? 

But from what I see written by the experts here on the forum only fools try to find deals on those apps.So my question is:If I wanted to stay in my expensive local market where I can't buy houses cash for retail.If I do direct marketing to find a house in my area and let's say I get a motivated seller.
