There can be a win in here somewhere for you, but you'll need to really plan carefully as to what's going to happen after you quit your job.

I am sure what the winning bid is not the end of the story so any suggestions on what else to keep any eye out before bidding and trying to manage the post win process?

Leases generally run first to last of month so unless you have a very special circumstance a tenant can not simply postpone a move by a single week.

Here's some information on a plot of land I am looking at:The plot of land is $70,000, in a beach town (not a popular destination, but also not in a completely run down neighborhood)Has already been zoned/approved for 750 unitsBased on demographics I put rent at $1200 per month per apartment I calculated a construction like this will be around $7 million.Basically, I ran the numbers myself, but I know they are not spot on, and I am simply asking for advice from somebody more experienced in this field to help me out by pointing out things unique to these types of projects.

I personally have had bad luck trying to simply get in touch with the few FSBO properties my clients have tried to look at.

I usually will treat before a tenant moves in (if need be) and if later on down the road they call me complaining that there is roaches, fleas, etc... in their property I will simply repeat what the lease they signed says. 

Make sure your leases are very detailed and protect you as the owner.When it comes to doing pre/post rental inspections, it's simply a must.

I love creating win-win partnerships in life.I'll drop each of you a message and we can get something put together.Zh

Landlord will likely win in court all the time for any default..Residential leases will lean heavily on how the local county or township favors tenant and landlords..

Always approach the situation as a problem solver and a solution provider, everyone wins.
