Right now I am delivering boxes with marketing information inside such as yellow papers, a business card and why I am wanting their house.

Apart from using paper checks, does anyone know of a service that does provide this function? 

Each time I email them (avoiding phone, they prefer phone, I want a paper trail) he leaves her off his aggressive responses.

For the lurkers - On paper it needs to be 100% clear that you're not bankrupting your source of income to help you purchase a house.

However, I think I will have them sign a separate piece of paper stating if they do not come up with 1st months rent on OCT 1st they forfeit the security deposit.  

Quicken seems to have a better overall layout and investment setup than Mint in my opinion. 

At this point DHS and Fresno are the best markets I can find (on paper).....

HIGH ROI on paper generally speaking for anyone who does not live in the market = high risk  that is true in all major MSA  this is why the folks that are buying Morris invest homes will see a rocky road in the future its the area .. forget about whether the house was actually rehabbed or not. ( as some have complained about.Most go through this learning curve.. thats why I like where Chris Clothier has taken his company higher end assets that have dual exits.. and he is not out there touting 12 to 15% returns. his numbers are realistic and if you want to own rentals own solid ones.But don't beat yourself up you did not know what you did not know.. there is a place for section 8 housing and a bullet proof PM is critical.

My residence has a kitchen layout similar to this, and the dishwasher was added later, on the far side of the stove from the sink. 

Keep a paper trail and dated photographs.
