I make agreements with the renter that after they live in and pay the rent of $433, the lot rent, the trash fees, the water fees, and the sewer fees, the electricity, the TV, and the phone, then they become the owner at the end of the 12 years.

To those who invest in park based MHs: Do you go through the same screening as a resident tenant would?

The best part is that you can train you VA to do pretty much the same job of pre-screening the people who call as you would do. 

We screen them for you but ultimately the choice of who you use is up to you.  3.

I think it should be alright, but it won't kill me financially if I have to wait a couple months of screening to achieve the right tenants. 

Using an AVM to quickly screen a deal is fine.

This property will not conform to most of the rules out there in BP, however I feel it works for me and my situation out here in Sacramento.I have had both the Wood destroying pest inspection (came back clean aside from a few dry rot locations which I already knew about), and a home inspection (also came back clean aside from some of the know issues before the inspection).I am hoping some of the other Sacramento Investors / Landlords @Al Williamson , @David Hutson , @Dennis Lanni  can give me some insight into the forms that you use for tenant screening, leases, and general info on what you do to get a rental up and running in our Sacramento Market.  

Last night I was watching TV and a Campbell's Soup comercial came on and I told my husband, now there's a company that do alright in this mess.

Buy below market, kick out 80% of the tennats and screen for higher quality.

It’s not as easy as the TV makes it seem.
