Anyway, I get your point about some title/escrow being nutty and not accepting certain closing structures.I get this question from borrowers all the time, it's good to have multiple, solutions!

If that's true in your area then even if you could train your tenants to separate recyclables you would increase your costs by doing this.Have you tried setting up a camera and DVR to monitor the trash usage?

Ideally, ALL exit strategies should make you money and not end up being an "oh sh... solution".

Of course, if you're talking encroachment issues that might be different, but there are solutions to most title issues and some title companies just don't deal in solutions.It sounds like your biggest frustration is with lazy and uninformed real estate agents, which I completely understand.

My solution was to call a landlord in the area to get those accurate rent rates.For me, starting out, I'm focused on big goals and doing it right.

I want to send them another gift to both of them (My realtor helped me with paperwork on sell by owner deal which she didn't collect any commission on, and my PM has brought me an amazing deal then working on creative rental solution via group home). 

However, what @Tim Ehlers suggests seems a really good solution if you could find someone to do the lease option.

Do you enjoy coming up with creative solutions to problems or issues?

When you hit problems they require solutions.  

It is helpful to have some kind of cash reserves because you're buying the property and owning it.There are properties out there that need a minor rehab and not a major rehabFor minor rehabs let's say 10 to 20% of value for rehab don't work well with the "70% of ARV minus rehab cost" formulaThe solution is to do a joint venture with the seller where you give their equity on a note and get on title, no payments on the note for three or four months, use private lender money to fix it, then list it for resale, and then at resale you pay off a note to the seller and the private lender, and make 5 to 10% of value.Go to the search bar and search any of these termsTo be a real real estate entrepreneur you need to constantly look for motivated sellers, joint venture partners that you can use their credit and their down payment money, and private lenders to use their IRA money for loans@Dmitriy Fomichenko@Dev Horn
