Every company is going to operate a bit differently and you want to ensure that you are comfortable with their operations as well as their style of communication.No company is perfect but a great company will provide great communication to owners and tenants alike and be proactive in refining their systems so when the inevitable hiccups occur there is a plan of action to make corrections and grow stronger over time. 

With internet marketing its fairly easy to locate market properties without an agent or Broker.

That specific part of Marysville appears to be fairly quiet with a mix of residential and commercial buildings, many historic, but it also appears to be somewhat empty and borders some sketchier areas.  

I take exterior pictures of every door, window, etc.Inside the home, I take a picture from every corner of the room, ensuring it covers the entire floor and ceiling.

My town fairly low income area, housing prices are rising much faster then incomes. 

I feel like a slow monthly increase would be a good way to raise the rent but I dont know if thats a normal thing in this business like for example unit A 3 bedroom current rent 160/week for the first month of my owner ship it will stay the same, 2nd and 3rd month rent will increase to 170/week, 4th and 5th month rent will increase to 180/week and so on and so forth until I get to the fair market rent.

I’m fairly handy, working with tools and making repairs for a living.

However, when I do a property search on the tax assessors website, many times the Fair Market Value listed by the county is much lower than the properties list price?  

Also, a fair market valuation will need to be performed for each distribution. 

I am looking for someone in both of my markets;  Indianapolis, IN (46218), and Detroit, MI (48208) to provide yearly determinations of fair market value.
