@Matt GilroySo he's going to know that something is up when you show up and start inspecting in the corners.Do your inspection, mark off your checklist, and prepare for inevitable personality conflicts over nothing as the relationship shifts.Showing up is one of the basic rules of self-managing your rentals, Matt.

Pittsburgh is a wonderful market, and you have lots of support waiting for you. 

Canada's welcoming immigration policy, highly-rated education system, and our government support system provide the perfect setup to entice international students. 

Every auction has terms and rules that most likely vary from each other.

I believe they're willing to refinance you out completely, as long as the appraisal supports it.

The CAM license would help you understand about property management, rules, regulations, statutes, etc. as that govern your state. 

Weather it be the standard 1%, 70% rules or something unique that you have come up with.

Don't necessarily rule out agents that haven't or are a new agent as long as your aren't also new.

That variance in debt service payment can make or break the cash flow number. 12% sounds ridiculous, but if the deal will support it, it is simply another expense like a roof or kitchen cabinets.

Rule one, the person with the gold makes the rules.
