I was also able to do this in person which made it a little more comfortable for me as I wasn’t providing them copies of anything.In today’s scam heavy society I think a potential tenant has the right to verify who the landlord claims to be at lease signing.

I am liking the idea but I am really concerned if something big shifts.

I picked up extra shifts with the fire department, did odd jobs around town and even donated plasma to save up the capital I needed to make my next purchase.

While I preferred turn-key or cosmetic fixes initially, I’m not opposed to shifting if it makes more sense for the investment.
