They promised so much but don't deliver, saying it is not in the contract....when they purposely wrote the contract in such general terms you don't have any support.

I wanted to just give a special thanks to @David Greene and @Brandon Turner for their commitment and effort on always deliver with excellence the podcast. 

I've looked around online and I can't find an answer to my question...In Louisiana, if no one is home when I deliver the notice, can it be left on the door for the tenants?

This is a catch 22, because the nicest assets in the best locations are the ones that are most feasible for an absentee owner, but they are also the most expensive, therefore delivering the lowest return. 

CA and MO along with 23 other states are "title states" non-judicial, where title is vested with the lender and the owner retains the "bundle of sticks" of owners rights. 2 copies of a Notice of Default are not a requirement everywhere, one is always required to be delivered to a borrower. 

We can huff and puff about it, but the only way they'll learn is - when the market teaches them.The good ones will learn to find, contract and deliver properties to cash buyers at prices that generate real excitement and competition from buyers.

The courts consider the Certified Mail delivered after 5 days, if they don't get it, it's returned to you and the court accepts that as proof that you sent it and the tenant ignored it.

Know you syndicators, and look for deep and positive experience among at least one of the partners, and how they have delivered over the years. 

When it comes to delivering a tenant a Pay Rent or Vacate Notice in Sacramento, CA... how many days do they actually have before we can legally require them to vacate? 

So what the free market does is listen to what the customers want and then deliver on it - cheap PM.
