I recently read in a book that suggested I should open a dual checking and savings account, and take the security deposits from my future tenants and store them in the savings account, then use the checking to pay the mortgage or maintenance fees.

I started my career as an Architect specializing in exactly what you are looking for. 

I want to start learning, so i thought underwriting deals would be a great first start.

I am looking for rental properties in Lawton, OK to get started.

Hi friends, we started a meetup earlier this year for local investors (LA County), with a focus on multifamily properties.

The WLB lease (unless you use an ancient version) states that if nothing is done it defaults to a month to month.You can send them a Notice of rent increase (which you can get from WLB as well) sign an new lease, or do nothing and go mtm.I find that a 60 day notice from the tenant is not very helpful, most owners don't start showings until after the unit is vacant, so what's the point?

My name is Alex and I am a new investor with a desire to start a section 8 rental company.

I started the fund.

I give them every opportunity to save the $30 application fee.

If this is a route you plan to go, I might also get a lawyer on board from the start and allow them to either negotiate with the insurance company or file the lawsuit against the agent and brokerage.
