I am looking for some advice/thoughts from others on the tenant screening/background check for such a situation as I know many people do this.

Depends on time of year, how much you list the rental for, how thoroughly you screen your tenants.

Purchase price: $339,000 Cash invested: $100,000 Sale price: $593,000 A partner and I bought this dilapidated duon plex with views of downtown.

Google street view is not good enough.

Sold to first people that viewed.

Renters are screened by the government and lose their section 8 status if they tear up properties and they don't want to lose the benefit of the government paying most or all of their rent. 

Hopefully questions like that and extra screening will mitigate some of this.For context, my wife and I just moved into our first househack.

(yellow flag)I spoke with the wholesaler and scheduled a time to view the properties.
