I have seen these with social conscience come and go.. we are going to keep the homeowner in the house why would they not.. well we all think that from our easy chair and basically stable life. however homeowners in foreclosure are in max stress for a number of reasons.. and my experience and granted its only a couple hundred deals were i bought homes in foreclosure.. folks living there have best intentions but life just gets in the way.. so in my mind your buying the asset and if for some reason they pay then great.but don't go into these thinking your going to save people.. go into them with the idea your going to own the house.. and be prepared for that. also I am not sure why folks take all that work and risk for a few extra bps  when perfectly good performing notes will return close to the same return.. without all the hassle work and drama.

., It's perfectly fine to sell several properties using 1031 exchanges and combining them into one larger property. 

In addition, the perfect storm of great/non-hazardous weather, the already strong economic base, the education base, all of the new developments and companies moving here, the new MLS team, the streetcars, the COL, etc. is enough to attract a significant portion of homebuyers who didn't even have intentions to move in the first place.Now of course, it isn't easy as "I went to the Super Bowl in Atlanta and I loved the city, lets move!"

We are not perfect but we make sure our clients make money. 

In a perfect world, you should be allocating some cash for repairs/maintenance/vacancies and capex in order not to have any surprises when something breaks.

I figure as I perfect the systems it will be easy to take on more clients.

Granted, the hustle can't be as perfect with houses as it is cars, because the design of the house is not dictated by the home warranty people, as the design of the car is dictated by the same people who sell you manufacturer's service, but that's how it works.

So far he has been the perfect tenant.

Not perfect by any measure but as I get into it more I know what I’m looking for
