Hi Braedon,Thank you very much, to be honest, the place where I started the business is what boosted the portfolio but with hard work, commitment and focusing on great service toward customers and owners alike. if you do a great work, then people will spread the news among their group and they will call you. 

I also don't understand why running out of propane would ruin the water heater.

Most people I've asked have never heard of it, but surely this is the place to get more info on it.

I understand that there are issues with inheritance laws and unpaid property taxes for many of these properties but surely there is a way to figure out this mess and get these properties sold and utilized.

I understand the neighbors is also a factors.

I can look to see if there are bars on windows, graffiti everywhere, how well people care for their lawns, etc.

I can share my current breakdown of all costs etc. also I haven't done a 1031 but my understanding is it's just time gated to purchase a new property?

After that, in Cleveland/Columbus and Indianapolis areas.at this point it seems the easier way its getting the first couple of deals under conventional and then going with dscr.its just seems weird to me I need to own a primary residence in order to have dscr( I live in LA where prices are crazy), and wondering now how people that dont live in US how they invest in the states. 

My biggest problem these days are more (in some cases MANY more) people living in the apartment than are on the lease. 

Usually, we'd be really safe and happy with our responses for someone like you but I need to make this one be a little more firm if you don't mind - you are not to do anything that you don't understand.
