I would like to know from the investors that are doing more than 5 deals a year what are you doing to stay legal. 

@Chris Fuget I would stay close to home first.

I actually grew up in the area and know it pretty well so I can help you on which neighborhoods you might want to stay away from.

At least one interested party is staying on the ownership so this doesn't trigger any monies changing hands. 

I just harkened back to a hotel i stayed at once in Venice Italy and you know the Italians they dont even think about going out or to dinner until 10pm.. it was so loud until about 2am we never did get a good nights rest.

This tenant had been a PITA and we didn't want him to stay.   

Make sure you have all your numbers in order, you dont want any surprises at close.

In my analysis I'm assuming 80% of rentometer area SFH comps, since I assume the average renter would rather pay less to stay in a duplex vs a SFH.. also, do I need to assume a higher annual vacancy rate for a duplex (my analysis currently assumes 7%) ? 

It will be surprising to you how easy it is to spot a fraud with just these few tips. 

Or just call around in the area where I stay and just get an idea?
