Quote from @Sarah Kensinger: First, let me apologize because I'm tired and going to come across harsher than usual.I haven't seen much talk regarding STR safety, yet you created this post and pointed everyone towards a paid training program.

I get a lot of activity on facebook marketplace, but the majority of them are unqualified tire-kickers that waste my time.

Best way to weed out the serious buyers from the tire kickers and wannabes is to ask them to tell you about their last 3 deals.

Typical example: DIY landlord let tenant get away with constantly paying late, never paying late fees, demanding rent credits for ridiculous nonsense, then finally gets tired of it and hands it over to me.

@Corey Crane - Tired landlords. 

Account Closed  and I have found wholesale deals thru either referrals or by direct marketing mailing campaigns with people who have a need to sell and either because they need money fast, tired of dealing with tenants, etc.  

Sorry, I am tired, and have a cold.I was looking into getting an FHA loan for a 2 - 4 plex if possible, to try to live rent free, or possibly have a positive cashflow.

The Millionaire Next Door...About 10 votes Sorry, after that I got tired head and quit counting.

You can't ask people to do things for nothing, unless they are your mommy or daddy and even they can get tired of that.Mentoring is a required arrangement in some real estate companies, especially large ones.

I know with all the recent sandwich lease option suggestion we have had recently someone may suggest that, but not for someone starting off, you can find a good seller financed deal from a tired landlord, easier with less trouble.
