I have done very well, but it's been by buying at a discount, being very conservative with repairs, accounting for cap ex, getting repairs done cheaper than the other guys (I own, for example, a commercial snake, line locator, camera, etc.), rehabbing with an understanding of durability, and, if I'm being completely honest, quite a bit of luck due to an appreciating market.

I never said what criteria they didn't meet or where I got the info, the last thing I wanna do is tip these people off about how they use Facebook.I actually had one guy recently who's facebook profile pic was him giving two middle fingers to the camera while chillin with his pitbull, and online records showed 3 felonies including weapons, mob action, theft, and some other misdemeanor stuff.  

Talk to an Attorney for legal advice. 1 additional thing you could do is puut up Cameras in your house so you can monitor them while they are in your unit. 

I also held my phone up next to it with the date & time showing & took a photo of everything with a camera.

As for the camera devices, any opinion on the best options? 

Please don't forget to support us back by getting a new iphone every September, a new GoPro camera every December and a new Tesla every Febuary....Memphis is a beautiful city btw.....

To be more helpful, here is a simple breakdown of my financial state: -Attending college for PTA degree, no school loans or debt-Working two part-time jobs, wife works as family nanny-A sizable amount in savings (I'd rather not state the exact amount in a public forum)My current thought is to do capitol investments with maybe a local fix-and-flip investor.

We did take about 36" from an adjoining closet so we could make  a true "master bath."... and the professional photography with wide-angle camera lens also helped!

Video cameras and notepads are welcomed, as well as steel toe boots, gloves, goggles, and facemask....lol....really though.

Once you get wifi, I would recommend the Nest cameras.
