The main thing is I was able to maintain a line of communication with the tenants throughout this process, which was huge.

An additional filter and delay in communication.

I bet you want him out so that is the only thing you should communicate.

I just sent all the documents to my lender and will be in communication with him about the points you mentioned.

Marketing was an add in the local paper.. and communications was 100% landlines cell phones had not come out yet..

I will do the work in finding and buying properties; fixing up the properties; filling the properties; and working and communicating with everyone in the real estate business.I assume my low annual income will reduce my chances for getting the loan.

Unless you make the wrong choice from the start you will probably be okay if you just communicate often and pay promptly. 

Review the tenants lease and observe the language pertaining to lease expiration, does the lease automatically review for one year if either party has not submitted the proper written communication to inform the other party of its intentions to stay or vacate the premises?

.- Keep a open line of communication

In the event that, even when a tenant meets the qualifications and moves in, an event like this happens, having team members on the ground to assist in collection escalation matters, communication with the tenant and the investor, and the experience to know when it’s time to cut ties is crucial.
