I'm searching for a new credit check solution, and hoping someone who has already waded through the myriad options has found the same thing I'm looking for.Cozy.co offers soft pulls, but no way to collect an application fee unless & until the applicant becomes a tenant.

Today, on a per month basis, I collect roughly $6,000 -$7,000 in rent and have on average $4,000 in expenses - not a bad cash on cash return.

note, and rather than wait and collect the payments (since my mother in law is in her 90's) Sell the note? 

I have a ten unit and gave a tenant a discount on rent to help me collect and forward me service calls.

Assuming without evidence you are not married...if I were I in your shoes, I would:1) Figure out where most of your friends are living2) Find a convenient block or subdivision in that area that is mostly owner-occupied homes3) Buy a 3-BR house there with an FHA mortgage and move into it4) Get 2 roommates and collect reasonable rent from them5) Live there for at least two years6) Sell when you get married or have another reason to move (take the tax free gain)

It looks bleak, but I see value.So my take, focus on Class B & C for stability without having to worry about the impact the next recession will have on your properties and rent collections.

3.) collect rent same day he currently pays?

All his friends that stayed in CA are all so much financially advanced than him....All sitting on $300+ appreciation while he is collecting his $150/month cash flow.....So fly to Memphis, enjoy the culture, enjoy the people, enjoy the rib... for a week.....

What level of management will they are they expected to take on; collect rent or oversee that it gets done, unclog toilets or call repair men, renovate the unit upon vacancy or hire someone else?

Entities protect assets from collection on lost lawsuits.
