Personally, I would have dropped off a written notice that I was the new owner with my phone number and email address and instructions on how to pay rent.

For example, it will save you a lot of headache to film a brief video clip on how to operate your thermostate or your streaming for your Tvs or anything else that requires you to provide instructions for your guests.

As a young investor with only 1 real year of investing experience I was thoroughly surprised with the amount of honesty and knowledge shown by the instructor.

If there is ANY debris AT ALL... this could be a nail head from a tack strip, a pebble, those glue chunks that hang off the allure from where they stick the instructions to them, etc... anything like that and you're going to feel it under your foot and it WILL annoy you.

Basically its the process of creating buyer excitement by offering your house using a silent auction process that gets a lot of traffic to your house.The concept is that you advertise your house on Craigslist, in the Newspaper, and using some bandit signs (if you can), that you are going to be auctioning your house and the starting bid is lets say 50% of what the value really is.Then when people come to your open house to look, they can write their offer on a bidding sheet.The key is that all your bidding instructions explain that they are bidding on their "OFFER" and it is NOT an absolute auction.Then on the night of the open house you call each bidder and ask them to increase their offer over the current high bidder.Then if you like the highest bid, you can get them to sign an agreement and see if they can close.Thats always my first method...The second method of choice would be a lease with option to buy.

Once you work with a title company, it's as simple as dropping off the paperwork, EMD, and giving them contact information and any special instructions.

As a new investor, I've only seen the more seasoned investors instruct on one way to Comp Non-Commercial Residential Property or anything less than a 5 Family.

They were trying to read the instructions and put it together in the students room on one of the hottest days in August that year.

Sucks for you, if you didn't have instructions in writing to authorize or not to authorize such expense.

Also, I do have a side business as an online English Instructor here, which I'll continue to do stateside, hopefully more and more.
