So have to make sure you interview beyond just asking the simple "can you do this for me". 

That said, TurboTenant and Baselane have worked together seamlessly for me. 

(yeah, maybe I shouldn't be broadcasting my sick twisted forms of entertainment and strategy should I)BUT, most importantly is KNOW YOUR MAO and follow the math. 

Posting goals here on this thread can help to act as a form of accountability. 

I told them no, they said the best they can do for a mortgage was for me to pay 50% down.

The same goes for me and other folks who lean towards "yes." 

I have never paid a guru or anyone else to invest my money for me.

Quote from @Taylor Dasch: For me, the most success that I have had as far as getting a conversation with the actual owner is D4D and then knocking on the door.

But if they don’t even bother to fill out the forms to apply, or get a basic job to make ends meet, or borrow money from family or friends/ somebody else besides you, then they can’t stay.

It’s about the relationships you form.
