Checks have been consistent but going forward we are all in the same boat.

To me, the "as is" aspect of it is simply spelling out to the buyer that the seller will not be making any repairs. 

First, you need to know how to sell consistently under any circumstances before you calculate any commission.

I want to truly understand all aspects of the business before outsourcing everything to a company. 

I hope not, I was really looking forward to buying my first house.As of now all my plans, real estate and other aspects of my life, are on pause while we get through this situation.

And that's accounting for NOTHING going wrong or ever spending a single dime on any aspect of the house, and having FULL tenancy for the length of that time period.

The problem with appraisals up here is that it is not consistent and there isn't a policy across the board. 

For example, the low credit score may be due to medical collections due to a recent surgery but they're meeting every other financial obligation.You have to know how to investigate every aspect of the renter to determine a whole-person level of risk.

LandlordIs there a part of your business that is a consistent hurdle?

Dave Ramsey was on the radio this morning talking about if you have bills that you can put off so you can save for food and shelter do that.. including credit cards etc.of course March was too early to tell May June will be the telling months I suspect.. when I had my facility it was pretty consistent I bought it in I think 06ish and we a lot of vacancy 50% in 08 to 2010 but then it filled back up.. we could debt service at 50%.. so I never really sweated it. then I put a condo plat on it and sold it for some nice gains.
