Then, motivated by the sales pitch, I paid $1000 for some web builder program that was a real let down.

They took down the listing, which took down the listing everywhere, but told me it was reposted again after they took it down and so they're looking into it.Not quite sure who I'm supposed to file a complaint against at this point because it's a huge tangled web and I don't know exactly who associated with Company B was responsible, but the listings are gone for now!

The center for disease control has recommendations on their web site.

When you get to the site type in the search box 'file a complaint' (Since web links are not allowed on this site) Or at least give them a call and the commission can advise you on their procedures for an owner in your situation.

We have offered the owner $340k total for everything:$10k down, $240k in bank financing, and $90k in owner 2nd position financing.  

Customer support is very helpful and everything is setup to be web based, including signing leases electronically.Tenant PortalOwner Portal

@Victor PelusoWelcome to BiggerPockets, the site I consider to be Best for Real Estate on the web. 

I use an online web form instead of email and direct everyone to the URL and tell them they must provide the information before being contacted for a showing.

Maintaining good relationships with a handful of contractors and using technology like digital answering services (Google Voice), rent collection web sites, etc give us the right balance of knowing what is happening to our properties but minimizing the disruption to all of our full-time jobs.For us, there are two critical periods: one is during the renovation phase, especially if tenants are in the property.
