What is your approach to finding quality renters?

I am very demanding and expect a high standard of quality in property management. 

@Mark Gallagher That is a great way to look at this issue with a new twist...... thanks.....as long as the guy who shows up with tools  but poor business management skills can execute the actual rehab work well with good quality and workmanship.High quality lemonade made out of lemons....that were bought at a steep discount.As far as materials, would you suggest that the contractor purchase them show receipts and get reimbursed or would you just purchase them yourself?

I am looking for long-term quality relationships and although I don't have a lot to offer the experts/mentors right now, I don't forget those who help me out and I will return the favor in any way that I can.

I see continued growth over the next couple of years, driven by quality job and population growth.  

I would say that a quality Canadian attorney is who you would want to consult with for setting up a proper structure to buy US based property.Best of luck as you get started!  

The quality is good and so is the price point.

@Roland Cheek remember, with contractors your get your choice of two: quality, speed and cost.

Not as much testing of the materials but more of quality and compliance.

He can take that 150K and turn it into $2.5 - $3 million (conservatively) in 40 years without literally lifting a finger...just put it in your everyday quality funds in the market and be done with it.
