Dem stinkerds keep banning my damn ads Gadang them to hell...

@Robin Boyer you go Rob finaly someone with some sense, their own brain, but dont forget Robin check with your county or any county about buying outstanding property taxes, always look beyond the common way of real estate investing thats how you win. 

The county for the city you are investing in should allow for you to perform an "official record search" by name or parcel number then you can look for any outstanding docs such as judgement, mortgage, liens etc attached to the property owners name.

Those types of things sound damn good on paper but there is a reason for that in a lot of cases so you have to understand what you are getting into! 

Here are some tips for vetting potential tenants:Require a rental application: Have all potential tenants fill out a rental application that includes personal and employment information, references, and a consent to run a background check and credit report.Check their credit report: A credit report can give you insight into a tenant's financial history, including their payment history, outstanding debts, and credit score.Run a background check: A background check can reveal any criminal history or past evictions, which may be red flags.Verify income: Make sure to ask for proof of income to ensure the tenant has the financial means to pay rent.Contact references: Reach out to previous landlords, employers, and personal references to get a sense of the tenant's reliability and character.Conduct an in-person interview: Meeting the tenant in person can give you a sense of their personality and demeanor, which can be important factors in being a good tenant.Trust your instincts: If something seems off or you have a bad feeling about a potential tenant, it may be best to pass and keep looking.By taking these steps and thoroughly vetting potential tenants, you can increase the chances of finding a quality tenant who will be a good fit for your rental property.Good luck and keep us posted on what you decided to do! 

Sheesh...that would mean we'd actually have to read the damn thing...and I'm pretty sure none of us (including me) want to do that

You can find something solid, but nothing outstanding but that should be expected.

I can get together with my partner, discuss what we will put in the agreement and sign the damn thing. 

Because this is the most recommended option I see in my research, it's a tactic in damn near every article on asset protection.

The rental prices there are outstanding if you are willing to do a list of repairs to pass inspection.
