Remember when choosing a property management company or any other contracting service for that matter, CHEAPER is not always (and usually NOT) the best.  

or should I work with the tenants and do land contracts to sell them the properties at a higher interest rate and higher asking price because I am sure none of them have enough for a decent down payment and also I am concerned that interest rates will increase and I will be stuck holding a low interest loan and my money could go somewhere else, also I do not want them back. 

I am looking to bid on a foreclosure (upset bid after sale) and I got a title search done that showed a Contract Memorandum between the owner and a Property company (assuming its for a sale) that was filed after the initial foreclosure sale at the court house. 

I almost bought a short term rental but I decided to back out of the contract.

Once you have a property under contract have it professionally inspected.  

Do I have to have a realtor or lawyer draw up the contract or can this be done by anyone?

Hi Account Closed, I haven't had to do any major contracting work in my RE experience yet, but I did start doing research for a new multi-family construction/build in Hampton Roads and got great guidance and traction with Gary Tiller of Tiller Construction Company.I found him through buildzoom and he was one of the first contractors to respond and call me directly.

Is there some sort of a contract I can ask him to sign?

I have a partner who has a home under contract and I might have a buyer who is interested.
