Cameras change the game, pure and simple, especially cameras with digital recording, night vision, web upload capabilities, motion detection spotlights.

It shows they want to have skin in the game. 

However, no matter my best efforts to be transparent about the shared kitchen, baths, and laundry, people still didn't always get it. 

Yes, agreed it’s going to lose a lot of deals but the lack of transparency is why so many people get frustrated with wholesalers to begin with. 

And relatively new to the game, as well.

Its best practice to keep them in the tenants name to make sure they have some skin in the game.

How do you jump into the game when everything around you is being bought 50k over asking price with cash?

Do a 1 year lease and if is not for you sell it at likely a higher price in a year.I hate talking people into things, especially someone so riddled with fear like yourself... but I see this as a great opportunity to get into the game.

This keeps you at the top of your game. 

I did this and that decision put me well ahead of the game.
