Some things  I am looking for in a firm are: - tech savvy and automated processes (including payments) - experience with out of state investors - great attention to detail- great communication skills This will be to manage 2 to 4 SFHs in the Pittsburgh area.  

If the seller(s) makes enough income to utilize most or all of the tax deduction, they can often net more from the tax deduction, combined with whatever amount of cash the buyer pays at closing, than they would from a traditional sale to a regular all-cash buyer.

@Harry D Johnsonhow have you communicated previously? 

This is a good example of why we should be working with custodian only companies who can make the decisions internally and communicate with us directly.

Seller has also signed the TAR form authorizing me to talk to them about his loan if I want to communicate with them when he's not present. 

Once I started posting notices, they found out I wasn't messing around and actually started communicating

I have kept in good communication with the property management company for the complex from the first phone call inquiring if they allow units to be rented.

Will you be able to effectively communicate this to the buyer of your contract?

In 2 days we are closing on our 2nd investment property and I did all due diligence in listing and marketing the property, communicating with all interested people and selecting potential tenants.

Acceptance of rent constitutes a legally binding, month to month ORAL lease.
