I dont have personal experience with either, but I have tried to protect myself from both.My application has a spot on it where they are required to list an emergency contact person who can assist in their move-out if they become deceased, hospitalized (long-term), or incarcerated.  

This will be in the DFW/Dallas area so if anyone knows of a good agent/realtor/resource in the area to assist with the contract, I'd greatly appreciate any referrals.Thanks for your time!

Good luck with notes and @Wayne Snell can definitely assist you!

I have been reading that becoming an unlicensed RE assistant allows you to use the agents MLS.

Hopefully the seller will assist in making this process easy for the tenants. 

Thanks BP and colleagues who assisted and gave advice.

Fortunately, it is an attorney who will handle your contract at the title company and will assist you in regards to what paperwork needs to be filled in/signed.

I am looking to bring on an assistant and wanted to ask how other real estate agents/brokers found your good/great assistants.  

Let me know if I can be of any assistance in your search for Investment properties here in Memphis.

Ultimately said it's just a business decision to rent to them with the legal dependent not on a lease.Guessing folks in the assisted living facility niche may have experience in this - your wisdom would be appreciated!
