If it's a verbal tenancy, you have to show a practice of collecting rent that the tenant is no longer abiding by (or perhaps tenant shows up, and honestly states they were obligated to pay rent and haven't done so).When the eviction case is submitted, you give the tenants names, e-mail, phone, address.

My piece of advice would be to try to take advantage of as much free education as possible with podcasts, forums like these, YouTube, and other real estate investors.

My biggest piece of advice would be to find someone who is in the position you would want to be in 10, 15, or 20 years and meet for coffee.
