(don't burn bridges)4.

I don't require them to use the sprinkler system but if the front yard starts to burn out I call them and ask them to run it for a while.

If I showed you a field with 30,945 airplanes and I said to you: "only 1% of these airplanes will reach their destination and the rest will crash and burn"... will you send your family off and wish them good trip and good luck?

Also include in lease that minor stuff such as clogged toilet, light bulbs, lawn care, etc are the responsibility of the tenant so you are not bothered everytime a bulb burns out.

Too easy to get burned and that might sour you against real estate investing altogether being this is your first time. 

If you pay the money you may get more leads but I can almost guarantee if you don’t that bridge is burnt so the real question is 1000 worth burning that bridge.  

I knew he was motivated, fighting with brother and just burned out. 

Well folks, i have more than enough capital saved, pre approved with 3 lenders...so have money to burn.

@Jackson Gockman let’s connect and you can ask me your burning questions and I’ll do my best to answer.

If I ask for 3-4 bedroom in zip code xxxxx with less than $xx in repairs - why would you think I'd be interested in that 2 bedroom burned out shell on the opposite side of town.
