Any help is appreciated I need to find out more I’m about to buy my first property in the next few weeks also want to learn the ins and outs of my area 

Doing a U & O isn't about being a mean seller, it's about protecting your own interests and not wasting all the time you have on this deal just to say in the end, "I don't want to be mean."

It’s not a big deal just additional costs and paperwork to make sure everything is done legally and everyone is protected and have received and signed proper disclosure documents.

I'm intending to use insurance (homeowners, landlord, umbrella) as my risk mitigation for the time being so, while I know there are a lot out there who are going to recommend an LLC for legal protections (and I will hear them out), I'm mostly interested in what will be the best way to begin marketing under a business name. 

No one is going to wipe your butt or protect you. 

Hi @Terry Harris after inspection depending on what come up I first touch base with my attorney to discuss best approach, he will make sure I am protected during the attorney review phase for items that come up during inspection. 

They use google voice, the use fake or texting apps to shield their phone numbers etc.My question is has anyone else come across this and have you put any safe guards in place to protect property or potential resident from the scam?

There are plenty of markets that you can find in-place income at an attractive rate, but your total returns often suffer in those locations.

If however, they are paying their way as most students are, they too may have suffered a job loss and therefore a loss of income.

@Charlene Stovin, BiggerPockets has worked with attorneys in each state to craft comprehensive documents that conform to each state's laws.If you're scared to death and have anxiety, you need a SOLID lease to protect your assets, not something you downloaded from the internet.
