PMs are great if you choose to go that route for managing a property and existing tenants however screening applicants is not a job I would ever farm out to someone else.

I hate sounding like a broken record, but I just think it is good advice.What ever you use, get a website going WHILE you do your DM marketing.

Thanks everyone,I have it rented now, it only took about 2.5 weeks after it was finally listed on Zillow/ Trulia/ Hotpads.All those are owned by Zillow, and it took them a week to finally get back to me and turn my listing back on.I tried Realtor.com as well but only ever got a few leads from it.I think CL brings in too many tire kickers who waste my time or never show up to the showing, that's my experience in the past.However this time I had the same issue with Zillow, I think it was my wording in my email responses.I will be at the house Thursday 6-6:30, please confirm you will be able to make itI had a lot of confirmations that never showed, I guess I made it seem like I was going to be there anyway.After a week or so of that I changed to responding with a phone number and a couple of days that were available, asking them to call and set up a time.

Thank you BasitI have been listening to podcasts and reading when ever I get the chance.

I was only ever confronted with this once, again in a house that had water damage.

Ever see Breaking Bad?

Reach out of you ever want to chat. 

It is harder today to differentiate between companies and offerings than ever before, but that doesn't mean that running numbers on Turnkey properties is any different than other single-family homes.The 50% rule is a well-accepted, quick assumption calculation for determining net rental income on a single-family house.  

Thank you again and please let me know if you guys ever network and get-together.

The good contractors only take big jobs and cost a ton more than I ever imagined.
