Going the route of listing with an agent on the MLS (full-fee or flat-rate), at the very least provides a structured marketplace, with accepted practices and at least basic standards in place. 

Got one offer accepted and she helped through the inspection process (where we found issues and backed out).

I have a local seller with a duplex that would be willing to accept seller financing for the property.

@Asher Carr we list on the MLS and offer a $750 commission (50% of Rent) for the agent that represents the accepted tenant.

I just accepted a promotion to Austin, TX from the Bay Area. 

What is your minimum acceptable Cash Flow? 

Is there any type of liability I'm exposing myself to, by accepting personal cars to just stay there overnight?

We are close to testing several new pieces of technology that will help us untie from any outside programs for billing, communication and even property management. 

Do we accept applications choose the best one and then run the background check on just that person?
