In Ontario they take half a months rent for commission I believe (could be wrong about this).In terms of moving the tenants in and out for an out of province property I'd consider installing a lock with a passcode you can change digitally, that way it's as if you have a permanent lock box on at all times & you can ensure security by changing the code from time to time. 

They are way easier to work with in my opinion and as you grow, they will be more willing to be creative with your future deals if you keep a good track record. 

I'm looking for a project manager to help ensure things get done in a timely manner.

That's why they call it "creative" financing, you have to think outside the box a little sometimes to get the deal done.

Some pretty creative investors in there.

There're a couple in Newark and JC worth checking out.2) research and look for deals via direct mailing and other creative ways such as bird-dogging and/or cold calling.

It’s to ensure that you have margin, can stomach a hiccup, pay selling costs, and (hopefully) make a profit.

Or get creative in terms of financing.

Right now sounds like she delayed to ensure renewal.
