But it sounds like you have decent tenants, so before giving them that notice I’d explain your situation (needing to sell, nothing to do with them, you liked the, etc.) preferably: in person, on the phone, or email.

Originally posted by @Brandon McLean:I want to start paying all our regular ongoing bills and utilities with money straight from the LLC rental income....cell phones (we use our phones for mostly work anyway), electric bill, internet, water, etc etc....Unless you literally work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week - you are asking for some serious trouble. 

In the beginning when the tenants would call I would immediately pick-up the phone, I found that to be a problem.

Make sure you screen out the weirdos when possible!

. :) One thing I did not have more direct involvement in was the screening of the tenant.

I was curious to know if anyone has discovered a convenient, quick way to find phone numbers for Real Estate leads other than the white pages?

Yeah you could find something on Craigslist or at a used appliance store but if your like me you don’t want phone calls on a Sunday night that the fridge is dead .theres no sense In buyIng used outdated archaic junk wIth a questIonable servIce when new at just a couple hundred more , you get a warranty Its a wrIte off Its more effIcent and It Isnt lIkely to fail .

Also, please include PHOTOS, ADDRESS and COST of your last three jobs completed along with and the POC (Name and Phone#) of your customer.

use a tenant screening service to run credit / look for evictions.   

I read about how to rent, how to screen, how to buy, etc.
