I have the extra fee built into my price if a wholesaler finds me a buyer then I pay them.

If the employment, previous landlord, personal reference, and ability to get utilities turned don't check out I stop right there and pocket the $20 and tell them "no thanks".Plus, unlike a lot of BP members, I actually like it when my tenants pay late - the late fees are great extra income!

There are companies and individuals who perform this service.

My advice is to NEVER buy a property without separate metering unless you plan to separate the utilities (install individual metering).Mike

Extra cost to install a new panel etc was about $1800.

I have taken two of the classes thus far, and am about to take my next two, and haven't taken advantage of the mentor.Eventhough the information was well presented and some questions were answered, I am finding that just getting out there and reading books from libraries, looking up topics on UTube (which somehow linked me to BP), and networking with individuals here on BP, is giving me the same if not more information as the classes.The classes are beneficial; but I think that you could probably find the same types of classes, for much less $$$.A plus for the Rich Dad Academy is that you can retake the class once, and you can enroll in OnDemand (which is just watching the class an hour at a time on the internet).The negative: Once you go to one of the seminars that try to get you to sign up for Rich Dad Academy, you also get another call from their "coaching" system, which is another $$$ (embarrassed to say what it was, because I was roped into this also).My advice; find out the types of investing you want to do, research those topics, and post your questions and leads here on BP.

Most of them welcome extra money after hours or on weekends.

Not a call for the bottom, just a good opportunity for me to free up some extra cash each month.5.

This is the beginning of the process of defining the actual individual markets that make up "The Sacramento Real Estate Market".

It is further out from Phoenix, but since most homes in QC rent for $800-$900 per month, you could easily rent it for $800-$850 per month, have $150 positive cash flow, and not waste your time nor spend extra money to repair it.
