Not so much as a missing window screen!

While I think it's important to have a good screening system in place, there's more to someone than what the financial documents say.

I am asking because I just came across the suggested 50% / 2% screening methods and at first look it does not meet their criteria.

Pre-screening prospective tenants in Baltimore County, Maryland

Window screens should only cost $25-40 each - materials AND labor.You might want to give this list to a different handyman and get a price.

Many new wholesalers don't give enough information to as much as pre-screen a deal.

T Boone Pickens went on TV and pledged a massive fortune on wind energy. . . only to abandon it when it didnt pan out.I have yet to see any vampire, even on True Blood step up, or for that matter any bazillonaire and coin Virgin Solar.You both are wise minds, to urge caution.Brother and Neighbor Matt Devincenzo, you and I both know of the brownouts here in Southern California, I would be afraid to fold the electricity into the rent check, especially if I get a granny tenant that runs the air conditioner all summer.Again gentlemen, very wise words. . .

My blood pressure rises and I cry everytime I talk to her because she has nothing but hurtful things to say and all I ever wanted was for her to be happy.

I call them back and schedule a property visit with all potential deals (screened against the criteria of my mentor who has 20 years experience and who I partner with 50/50 on the sale).

Good screening = lots of pain avoided
