Wouldn't invest in that area, personally.

I personally own horses and it's an insurance nightmare most of the time - especially with renting out stalls to non-owners. 

Everyone is going to give you their own "personal" preference.

If he did not meet the background check to be a renter that person cannot stay there. 

You could try your hand at one of the numerous online services that advertise this stuff but I've found it better to start the relationship early with an actual person as opposed to a faceless online service. 

Does the company have a maintenance person that will handle small repairs or will you become responsible for every hole punched in a wall or other thing that gets broken and damaged.

Is Fund and Grow a good company?

Louis personally, but Chicago has treated me great and we have properties both in the city and the suburbs. 

Where are the best places (in person or online) to find qualified buyers for investment properties?
