@Cole Barthel, thank you for your service sir.

@Arturo Colmenero you could try referencing zoning maps to look for multi family pockets but your best bet would be to subscribe to a service like Reonomy for example if you’re serious about finding multi family properties

Hi @Zach Schnoebelen, welcome to Chicago :) My suggestion is Berwyn - it's a suburb on the near southwest side that is still serviced by our commuter train, the Metra, which can take you downtown in <30 minutes.

All they normally have to do is prove that they are not the ones that are servicing the loan anymore which would be similar to a rental property, however they should not say that it is a rental property.

An applicant is unable to complete the background check because he doesn't have history with Experian.

I go through applications as they are received and they pay smartmove for the credit/background.

So new locks are perhaps reimbursable, but new kitchen cabinets would probably not be.You need to look at the applicable Alabama law for tax sales.One of the first things you should do is also ask for proof of ownership.   

Thank you for your service...What exactly are you initially thinking about doing?

I'm thinking:  recent law updates, handling specific tenant issues, when to raise the rent,  service/companion animals, vs pets;    Specific ideas would be best.   

They were great, paid their rent, late fees when applicable.
