Just like fair market tenants you have to screen, screen, screen.

I attend a fair number of REIA meetings.

We are building our buy and hold inventory here and have found it to be a fairly good model, and my partner and I are using our current skill set as a construction company to build in equity through new construction.

I am a fairly new investor with a few SFHs under my belt.

I've only been on BP a short time and am fairly new to real estate investing but I'd be interested in connecting with you since I'm also from Bakersfield.I've been doing lots of market research and evaluating properties off the MLS but haven't found much that meets my criteria.

I'm a fairly serious DIY kind of guy having built 3 houses, renovated a manufactured home, built several small barns and about to renovate a vacation home we just bought "up north" as we Michiganders like to say.  

I do month to month, some tenants aren't crazy about that to start, but if you are a good fair landlord and they are a good tenant you won't have any issues they would stay just a s long.

Not sure where you are here in a city of 2 million HUD homes that go to investors need major work not a single valve .Too many savvy folks play this game now .I have bought 2 HUD homes with cash back when you get a deal on HUD homes fairly easy , I know the game well .The market has changed so I am changing you must or you will wither on the vine .Have a go getter agent now,I am going to start looking this week feels good . 

The judge may have ruled your tenants have to pay back the court fee but it's a fairly sure bet that they are not likely to do this. 

Hello there, I am fairly new to the investing world.
