It would be ideal to start here for a hands on approach, but honestly, if the deal is good, I'd take it in any profitable market.

@Courtney HamiltonRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

Hello all, I'm curious how much the HUD will actually pay compared to the 40th percentile rents posted on their site.I'm aware of the different amounts each tenant will cover in terms of their portion of the rent, but I'm not sure if the HUD will actually agree to my rent price.I've been taking the stated FMR for the bedroom count, and taking 20% off the number stated (to be conservative as to what the HUD will accept). 

This is a Heloc on my primary.  

Hey @Derwin Smith-Bishop Glad to have you here on BiggerPockets!

Aloha, BiggerPockets community!
I’ve been in the real estate business for almost three years now and have completed five deals: one buy-and-hold long-term rental, one short-term rental, and three fix-and-flip project...

I stumbled upon BP while watching a podcast on youtube.

Is there any type of document I can make the buyer sign for these 2 weeks he will be occupying the property in order to cover myself?

This is a crucial step in identifying and cracking down on criminal elements.

Read as many RE books as you can get your hands on.
