Here you go which most consumers will not like what I will say.A few years back I work for a firm that contractor fraud investigators to the major credit bureaus to help them with their consumer dispute fraud, and I was assigned to one of the three bureaus and by setting on the inside looking out I have seen all types of disputes come in everyday some legit most fraudulent and when I say fraudulent, I mean police reports that was sent in saying the consumer had identity theft, and suddenly the bureaus got behind on verifying the consumer disputes they had to delete because the bureaus fail to verify within 30 days and the consumers starting flooding the bureaus with fraudulent disputes so myself along with other investigators from the other bureaus sit down and say what can we do to close the loop hole, so we approach some law makers about passing a law, so there can be an automatic dispute process, and we were told to put it on paper how it should work, but we were told no guarantee it would pass and become law.

I have fixed house that did not sell for price I expected. I took it off the market and looking for short term tenant or rent to own with high down payment and goal to sell it eventually by the spring time. Just me...

As for the average REI that thinks they can take such a complex area of law write the OA and contracts themselves, I’d venture to say for the single owner LLC doing only tenant-landlord law and/or flipping the LLC is not worth the paper it is written on and you wasted filing fees at a minimum.

You pay the rent or your gone.It's that simple.Even if a property is paid for many landlords stress they have to pay the bank and that gets tenants to pay up.Sometimes not filing eviction but putting the paper on the door will get them to pay.Professional tenants will check at the court house to see if you actually filed.Usually the judge will set up a payment plan to pay some each month on the back rent along with regular rent to catch up.That is usually cheaper for a landlord then them moving and having to recondition and lose rental income waiting for lease up again.If you start going soft that is when the knife goes in the back.When landlords get burned out form doing it for years they start to get mentally drained and let things start sliding.Doesn't matter if you have a 2 unit,20 unit,60 unit apartment or own 10 houses scattered about.If you start to let things slide then tenants talk especially if you are renting other properties to their friends or family.They will talk to each other and start testing the waters coming up with only have the rent or an excuse for no rent etc.

My answer was that I wouldn't really want to live in my properties anyway :PMy security deposit is about half a month's rent, even though I probably look like more of a security risk on paper.

In case you are wondering, I have googled for buyers, cold called rental adds, used bandit signs, networked with other investor wholesalers (but they won't give up their contacts), gone to auctions, and placed ghost adds in the paper and on-line....nothing!

I'm very excited to own this new home as it is really well located, and has a great layout with attractive features and good bones overall.The house was owned for the last 40 years by a single owner who is selling as she is no longer to take care of the property as her husband has passed away.

Given the forms you file at the Wake county courthouse must be in triplicate, I'm guessing a judge would throw out an eviction filing that wasn't in writing and signed in ink on paper by the tenant, regardless of legality (perceived or otherwise).

or do you order lined yellow paper.

so that your LLC was NOT an LLC that lives in your desk drawer only...Does it add a layer of protection – yes, especially if you own say 4,5 rentals and want to create say 1 LLC per 2 rentals.Will you be liable with your other assets if something happens in your rental– maybe –that depends if the plaintiff’s lawyer will manage to prove to the judge that your LLC is just on paper.
