I have been getting colleague requests in my e-mail but when I click on it then it goes to BP but says you have no colleague requests.Never had this happen before.Maybe Josh you should have a section for just reporting ongoing bugs to fix for BP.Maybe you already have it and I didn't see it.Thanks

-Can I also sue for mental & emotional duress as we do not feel can comfortably live in our condo complex due to threatening e-mails I have received from the HOA.I would also accept any other advice that anyone has on my current situation.

As one example, I was looking at this condo online:http://www.trulia.com/property/3032210101-520-E-14th-Ave-7-Denver-CO-80203It is offered at $90K, but the price has been dropping, so maybe it could be had for $80K.

In regards to e-mailing or calling the we buy houses type ads is it best to mention that I am new to this and ask what they are looking for so I can make sure I dont send them leads they wouldnt be interested in to begin with?

(As far as they know, you're just the handyman, rent collector, who's employed by the company "Best Landlord in the World".)It also provides additional evidence to the IRS that you are indeed running a separate business.Profit and loss would still go through your individual tax forms on Schedule E, so no changes there.Something else to consider - insurance coverage in case a renter (or their guests) has a slip or fall.

I prefer e-mail, too, but this is a phone intensive business.

You need to call your insurance provider.They will tell you a list of what is okay and not.Mine no aggressive breeds of animals is permitted or they will pull the policy on all the buildings.Rottweiler,Pitt Bull,etc.Some insurance policies have weight exclusions but some do not.Another important factor is the BITE HISTORY of the animal.If it's deemed a non-aggressive breed but that little dog has a bad history of biting people then I won't take the animal.I don't like pet deposits.You have to hold it like a security deposit.Instead I like a one time "pet acceptance fee" that is non-refundable.The tenants will say the pet won't do anything etc. but the amount of pet deposits that actually go back to the tenant after they leave I would guess is very,very small.You can also get the tenant to pay a pet fee per month.With the pet fee you need to figure out the cost of the unit for new carpet and damage to the base boards.The cost to be carpet,pad, and labor to install plus baseboard finish and paint.Used to you could put a vapor barrier between the carpet and the pad but it would be really noisy.Now if you spend just a little more you can get a scotch pad made out of rubber that is stain resistant.Then when you go to replace the carpet the pad is still good.Have in your lease that the tenant will be responsible for clipping claws,neutering,getting rabies and other shots to maintain the health and well being of the animal,etc.

I get a ton of e-mail from Wholesalers in Florida It appears that the wholesalers are doing quite well.

Go to www.godaddy.com and play with domain names...mami&davebuyhouses.commamibuyshomes.comIf you can find a "cutesy" one that is easy to remember... register it, then use that same tag to get an email address from one of the free providers.When you have the domain and the e-mail address to receive, then get business cards.At that point you will have the contact info required for the card and you can get a website later.It's not about having a card, it's about establishing an identity long term.Go on the internet and download a business plan template...
