Hello everyone, I'm just hoping I can get some advise on my issue. I've finnaly saved enough where I can purchase a rental property. I've spent countless amount of hours watching webinars and videos to educate myself....

Just my initial thoughts based on the limited information, I wish you the best with whatever you decide.

On further searches on BP, I see that a lot of folks have had this same exact scam pulled on them - Craigslist ads with lower prices and one to many people that get the place rented to.I am very curious to hear from anyone who has had to deal with landlord tenant law issues that have arisen from this - i.e. disgruntled scammed wannabe tenants who decide to either break in and claim the place, or pursue action through the courts.As someone going through this right now for the first time, any words of wisdom would be appreciated. 

Decided I would see what I can learn before I have enough capital to use!

How can I find the best deals and what metrics should I look st in order to decide if it’s a property worth investing in?

You can then work for a few years and decide it an MBA is necessary.

Force them to make an immediate commitment and if they decide to leave and have them sign formal notification.

We decided to decline the offer and reinstate it until Sunday, right before the open house started.

She's full of sh$t..... you just have to decide if you want to call her bluff and make it an issue over 1 month early.

(I'm not an attorney so I'm just raising an issue you may want to discuss with an actual attorney, but you may find this series of videos on wholesaling which was made by an attorney in Ohio to possibly be applicable to your situation.)In general I'm much more in favor of spending time to build relationships with a smaller number of buyers you've met with a few times and vetted a bit, instead of doing a mass mailing campaign - the "rifle" approach rather than the "shotgun".If you decide that's something you want to investigate, you could contact active people here on BP and/or go to your local real estate investment group such as RIREIG in RI or Black Diamond REI in Mass to start building relationships.Good luck and let us know how it turns out of course!
