I was also going to point out the income tax issue but Ron beat me to it.   2 other things to consider would be closeness to amenities (more restaurants, entertainment, and services in Clarksville, also closer to Nashville)  and the quality of the schools in the area.  

I am looking for the best software and/or a service that will provide me with good quality motivated seller leads, at a reasonable price. 

Just give your private lender a note and 1st deed of trust like a normal bank would get.Your or any quality title co can help with this and refer you to an attorney in their network that does them all the time.

I'm running an ad on Indeed and have gotten several quality applicants. 

It is a great business as the tenant quality tends to be higher and the rent is better.

So my real estate goal is to have at least a dozen SFH of decent quality at early retirement age(55) to carry me to full retirement(62) without having to have excessive early withdrawal penalties.

This will eliminate the biggest hit financially and when done by yourself will end up with better quality tenants.

But never select the company directly who quote minimal charges as all of us understand that quality never will come in reduced rates therefore greater to learn about the solutions and prices and then choose for employing them or not.Lease Variety: Property administration companies have a great idea of creating rent price while they know industry demands and your house value.

My approach is very simple in a situation such as yours since the new higher rents will attract better quality tenants.

Last year i patched together a few subs and the timelines and quality of work was not what i'd like to keep working with.If any of you have any rec's for a good GC that can handle rental quality rehab work, please pass along their info!
