@Michelle Humphrey - As a landlord, I always tell prospective tenants that they should attach a latest copy of the credit report to the application.

If you really are planning a small community, I would first try to determine if there is an outside lender or lenders who might make the loans to your buyers, or if your customer credit quality is too low, look at a couple of legal joint venture relationships you might explore.

I am new to the REI and BP world.  These past 2 months I have learned a TON.  I'm looking to invest in areas north of Atlanta (Cumming, Dawsonville, Gainesville, etc).  Today I did my first round of Driving for Dollar...

It's customization is incredible and in most cases it is free!

Somehow they often do not care who they sell them to and their prospective buyers end up not qualifying to live in the community, and that is always an issue.

I've talked to VRBO's customer service and they are aware and supposedly working to get it fixed.

The cabinets that will be installed in the kitchen are custom white shaker cabinets (solid wood boxes), and there will be a large 8 foot island with a large sink farmhouse apron sink.

Primary Team members are experience in what you are proposing to do like Attornies/Lawyers, real estate Agents/Brokers, CPA's (or accountants you know and trust), Inspectors, Propery Managers, General Contractors, and Handymen.In the beginning especially, always do the math analysis and try to look at prospective properties before you make an offer or at least have a clause in the purchase contract that allow you some upfront time (about 10 to 15 days) to make a detailed inspection and possibly back out of the deal without a penalty that will hurt you too much.  

Ask the prospective tenant about them.

They typically fly down here to prospect the territory and interview as many local REI people as possible.
