Remember you don't have to own a property to control it.A buddy bought an old Victorian with a bunch of bedrooms in a tourist area there, rents it out to them for $200 a night per bed HUGE cashflow.Paul

If a tenant in a downstairs apartment is having issues with the tenant in the apartment above them, specifically noise complaints and/or harrassment due to loud noises during the night intentionally to disturb them, whose responsibility is it to intervene when the tenants cannot settle the matter themselves?

Jason,At last night's Atlanta REIA meeting a couple of folks had properties in Smyrna they were looking for buyers for.

I told Jamie the night before we were going to go.

I mean if you forgo a few nights out you could buy a vending machine for crying out loud! 

stoney, i recommend going to a couple REI clubs on their free night: the rich club which is off hwy 290 and lu (lifestyles unlimited). go on the free intro nights and take a pen and paper. take copious notes and ask questions and get business cards and pamplets. then at the end of each seminar, leave quickly because they will try to sell you very expensive memberships which will not help you anymore than getting free information here on biggerpockets. i have done this many times and have numerous notes, information, phone numbers and business cards that i use in my rei.

I read the same last night about small claims.

By day, my background is in powertrain engineering, by night I’ve been reading as much as I can on real estate investing over the last few months.

I check Craigslist every Thursday night, even when I don't have vacant units.

Darren Sager organized the meeting it may be tonight or was last night.
