My company is about to start buying and selling heavily in Kansas City, KS/MO.

Not to mention that marketing, customer service, property management, owner usage, etc heavily impact each property individually. 

I rent to young professionals and heavily screen them (credit/background, calling references, asking pointed questions during the interview to gauge personality/compatibility with current roommates). 

This occurred in the middle of the night, and obviously had been smoking heavily for some time before residents were awakened and managed to get out.

https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/8313-my-journe...I'm pretty new at this whole thing too, but have been digging into research very heavily.

We accept Section 8 applicants and have had no problems because we screen heavily.

In most states they heavily influence or control the state real estate agencies.

This is why Hedge Funds and other Institutional Investors are buying heavily in the rental market.

It's very heavily booked from mid May through September, then the weekends book during ski season. 

Especially those that have no money and get into sandwhich leases or sub too some of those folks I literally kept out of Jail.. those are NOT appropriate for beginner investors in my mind or those that are not very well cashed up.. the margin of error is so slim... to the point I would suggest they should be heavily regulated same with sub too this should be regulated like Dodd Frank has regulated sub prime.. same thing disaster waiting to happen to those with little reserves and not much experience.So its just point counter point... no one is trying to be negative about the business or being a bully or anything. just a does of reality for the no money no credit crowd.
