The flow direction on that faucet is now in instead of out. 

Not just from your buyer side of the transaction.If you're only doing one transaction, it's probably not worth getting an EIN.You can have the check made out directly to your name, you just have to remember to deal with it during tax time.If you plan on doing more of these and other transactions, then it might be worth getting into a DBA and/or EIN.I go through this all the time when I sign up with vendors to do BPOs.

Tyler, after Lehman you need both a 750+ FICO AND a 80+ PayDex which will require a EIN/DUNS maybe reporting vendors/suppliers or you can go directly into business credit cards if you have a good FICO and then credit lines/loans after those are reporting.

I think it could be a step in the right direction.

Looking to start a direct mail campaign.

 - As with all bonds, it can lose value during time of rising interest rate, so not risk free.2) Purchase US Treasury Bills directly from US Government- Risk free (if you hold until end of set term) and set interest rate (better vs. savings account). 

It is my opinion that the more utilities that can be directly billed to the tenant the better.  

Off of MLS, direct mailing?
