Im in a hard spot since the market is hard to rent the place if they leave.They also want me to pay for a fire extinguisher.

There are example application that can be found online or I could even e-mail mine to you.The second method that is very helpful is to ask the potential tenant on the spot (after filling out the application) to see their current residence.

Thanks Charles they do keep them up i lived in three of them when i was teen ager and few of my family members have also rented there they have been selling some of the older ons and having newer ones placed in there respective spots and there is a whole lot of room for expansion

Any thoughts on how to have a central spot (besides renting a storage unit) where we can keep tools so that he is not on the site while I have a tool he needs & vice versa?

Josh,Sorry for the delay,I have found my sweet spot investing in 60 month D, E, and F loans, 20k and under.

Great answers already....The comment about being precisely wrong is spot-on too!

I buy silver at a $1.00 over spot price.

I'm not a fan of specialization in any method to acquire inventory, like foreclosures, a good investor can acquire a quality property from any source in the market and buy properties that aren't really identified on the market, for example; from an aging landlord who you spot cleaning out a rental or a wharehouse that has been empty for years.

hi michael  i'm in a similar spot and wondering how you made out with this and if your REI career has progressed the way you'd hope until now, 7 years later (7/2109)thanks

That is hilarious - and yet - somehow spot on too!
