@Skyler HarrisAnother professional engineer here in the mix, although admittedly I haven't practiced pure structural (picked up a few projects and clients over the last 2 years). 

I would hope you could a quality professional there.

If no ring I’d feel like I’m being set up somehow 2.id suggest testing handwritten, printed handwritten font or “professional “.

And I don't start showing it until the current tenant has fully moved out, and I've had a chance to make any necessary repairs and have the place professionally cleaned for the next tenant. 

Currently working on networking and building a team of reliable professionals to work with over the coming years.I have been interested in Real Estate Investing for the past few years, but only recently got the bug and really started getting into it.

If he/she doesn't accept, don't buy, but if you persuade them that any professional investor will look at the same numbers, that is how you get good deals...and then a loan originator like me or Gregory or Scott, can finance it for you. 

Always respond professionally without emotion.

@Anh Le    I'm not trying to give you a hard time, but this is exactly why you need a real estate professional representing you.I can tell you without even looking that a house priced at $160K to $170K will never be a good rental property.

I know this is a tall order to fill but just wanted to hear what any of you professionals have to say. 

Often I have seen out of state Investors enlist the assistance of a real estate professional who knows the area and properties and can offer their expert advice including videos pointing out both positives and negative but again not without having an inspection contingency as part of the agreement.
