A proper amount of insurance may be just as much protection, but others on here may know more than me.

Place the California patch in the hole, with the approx 1" of the backing paper overlapping the hole, then use drywall mud to "seal" in the patch.Either approach will take 2-3 steps to do properly (read that as feathering the patch to eliminate noticeably high spots), then you still have to texture match, then paint.I do like that new product, but to think that patch could be done that easily is a bit mis-leading to me.Enjoy!

The government doesn't want to be tasked with providing for people that were unable to screen things properly and thus has this bar set up.The rules were changed with The JOBS Act a few years ago and the SEC finally issued their interpretation of things late last year.

Pretty sure they still have to give you proper notice regardless, so that should buy you at least 30 days to find a new tenant.

It can just be held until the last month is finally identified, hopefully with proper notice by the tenant.

To work properly, the baseboard fins require the hotter water temperature (180 deg F).

This area will need a watchful manager, especially during vacancies, but can produce very high returns IF it is managed properly.

Now, perhaps using the words "under market value" is not the exact or proper wording as far as accounting or any other practice is concerned, however, my thought is not on what the proper words are, but the intent and what is actually accomplished.Secondly, I have purchased under market value on every flip I have purchased and after closing and before closing, used this to present to lenders, backed by reliable and public information, to establish loan to values, equity positions, and safety nets for lenders.

I have been trying to figure out how to go about buying my first rental property while living out of state, and properly ensuring it is managed and cash-flow positive.

Properly permitted and within local noise ordinance hours of course.Other than that paying them to leave sounds like the quickest option.
