I understand how if you live in a state where you can implement penalties for late payment (this is day 11 now, so today she is out of the mandatory grace period) it may be easier to incentivize residents to pay on time (in Florida, where I live, they start eviction proceedings on the third day after you are late), but in areas like Baltimore that are more tenant-friendly, what do you do to incentivize people to pay on time?

I’m a buy/fix and hold investor in the Bay in CA.

I need to save up some cash quick   If you are finding properties that fit your model, but are short on capital, consider offering opportunities for investment to people in your network who have capital that isn't earning anything.

If and when you buy the building, if there's any leases that have run month-to-month I would have the tenants fill out applications, requalify them and execute new leases with them.

The market is not great right now for finding a job in IT and I'm tired of getting off people and again recruiting them.

In terms of the loan(s), I currently have a steady and competitive W2 job and very low DTI, however I’ll ensure to verify the rules and regulations for rental income when shopping lenders, so I don’t hit a roadblock when buying the next rental. 

Would not be a wise financial move for most people. 

With these RE coaches, there's no type of certification and buying a property is one of the largest financial decisions people make.

Do you like "full service" meaning - someone to partner with you to not only manage but, help you to buy and sell?
