Am I missing anything, or do you have a different process for this?

The only thing you see here is AirBnB, that defeats the whole process of investing.

I also use a score sheet as part of my screening process and if you are late then you loose a point. 

I have had 11 tenants placed in 2017. 1 went through entire eviction process, 1 left on August 15th, 2017 without paying august rent.

@Brenden Harrision, How familiar are you with the whole buying process and the purchase agreement?

The entire process can run from $5k-$100k in severe situations (I've only witnessed one such repair cost that high).

I recently sat in a seminar for "success path " in New Jersey , and it seemed very skeptical... has anyone gone through there process successfully?

I like the aspect of the traditional route because I get to learn more about the process and interact more with clients (as far as helping find homes). 

I operate as an agent in a relatively expensive area in CT and this is a common question I get a lot from people as they start the process of buying a house hack.My clients who have had the most success have identified areas they felt comfortable living FIRST and then found a property that fit their budget.  

They are all either on the market and/or in the process of foreclosure.
