Want something practical, attractive and durable.  

Her parents (who live abroad) are willing to co-sign, but I don't see a way to run a credit check on them or, practically speaking, how I would even enforce a co-signer agreement with them if the tenant and her parents default. 

We're here on the ground in KC, making moves, practicing real estate, and helping others along the way. 

Thank you (I'm a bit out of practice :)!

Hi all,Is anyone incorporating sustainable or regenerative strategies in your business practices or into your projects? 

You can find these in classified ads in the big horse magazines (Practical Horseman, Chronicle of the Horse, Equus, etc).Whatever services he is providing, he is running a small business so as mentioned, small biz rules apply overall.

Do I need to hire an inspector to check it out and also would someone selling their house just let me send an inspector over to check it out, I'm not sure what the common practice is in this situation, thanks in advance for any help! 

Unless you're in a one-light town, don't pay attention to saturation, it's a metric that's not worth the headache and too vague/subjective to properly track.Real Estate is one of the only areas where professionals not only practice insider trading but actively encourage it. 

I agree that discourse should always be civil but I think this is a great site because we can get honest peer feedback regarding our decisions and practices as landlords.

Not to be unkind but, if you want to "...get rich in real estate..." practice doing things the right way.
