I am looking for recommendations on a solid property management company that can deal with a C class property the has a few section 8 tenants.

Help me think through the pros and cons to determine whom I should rent to:Candidate 1: Single recently divorced person with a 65 lbs pitbull.

Personally I look to find something that will exceed my returns in the stock market (10% cash on cash).

The original lease shows 5 people, no ages (husband, wife, and either 3 kids (or 2 kids and possibly the roommate- in which case is fine as long as they don't now mention another person).6. 

The only exception I'd make here is a group of successful STR properties with solid rental histories.

However, for personal reasons the tenant is no longer interested in remaining in this rental and wants to be "bought-out" of their "ownership".First and foremost, a verbal agreement just isn't going to cut it and getting a signed legal contract is the first step.

However, because we don’t have much experience with this matter, are relatively new to being landlords, and come from a different culture, we wanted to understand if there are any particular considerations we should be aware of.I heard that it is illegal to ask about religion, national origin, and other personal information when we talk with tenants, even if we don’t have any bad intentions or discriminatory purposes.

Hi Manuel,It sounds like you have a solid plan in place for addressing the renovation and humming sound issues.

I had a solid lead that backed out last week.I have learned a lot on my first sale and believe that I am very close buying more property.These are some of the things that I have learned:Get used to hearing the word NO!

Personally, I would avoid any sort of Airbnb arbitrage.
