@Cam Porter The market is what the market is. 

@Cam Harris  I read the article and it's an interesting strategy to enlist the drivers as bird dogs.

I don't accept sex offenders because there is a high risk of them committing another crime...but I may accept them if they are renting a single-family home on three acres outside of town.

You acknowledge that the Property is being offered without regard to race, creed, sex, religion, or national origin.

AVERAGE DAY IN THE LIFE - tenant maintenance requests, vendor management, project/construction oversight, bid gathering, tenant moves, financial reporting, budget tracking, rent collection, tenant/vendor networking.BIGGEST CHALLENGE(S) - problem tenants (consistent unwarranted complaints), CAM calculations, Property Manager (employee) turnover - our market has a lot of PMs seeing if the grass is greener on the side.CHANGES NEEDED IN THE INDUSTRY -  proprietary equipment needs eliminated, To follow up on what others have mentioned regarding lowest return - after working a W2 for 3 years in the commerial property management field, I'll be launching my own commerical property management company in a couple weeks with a portfolio of ~$1M in gross receipts (83k sq. ft).

So you cannot choose a person based on skin color, sex, ect.

You should evaluate all your applicants based on income and credit scores and apply this uniformly, regardless of race, religion, origin, familial status, disability, or sex of the applicant. 

(I own a good sice portfolio and we are leveraged with a very healthy equity share.)A stress test for your portfolio is basically a set of distressing circumstances, like a worst case scenario and then you look at your bottom line.What happens if:- you loose 30% of your tenants- rental rates soften- your competition starts giving out free rent- your adjustable rate financing kicks in- your annual capex spikes (well, this should not come as a surprise)- etcNow you don't look at this statically and say okay now I cam cash flow negative.

@Cam Schumacher I currently have my MF in New Mexico.

Do you they typically include taxes and CAM on their commission base?
