So when you get these folks offering to do deals off the internet or offer to partner you with there private lender and they are not licensed where your deal is .. that's a huge red flag.

Everything comes back to how you train your tenants.

Sarah is right cost of doing business ,I had a dryer knob it was broke ,had a different tenant not change a furnace filter may have caused damage but it was still under warranty they are all know the plan now .Plus it was a learning tool for me too,train tenants in all aspects of all mechanical in the house .

You may be able to search by this instrument type to find grandfathered properties.As to where, according to the internet, this all happens at 777 Pearl Street, Eugene.

@Cole Schlack  I just can't agree with your train of thought when the city council levies fine its a code enforcement action that will be a lien on the property if not paid.. just like you see in many bigger cities were code enforcement tags houses for waste and wrecked cars etc. its a huge issue in most cities I know our city of PDX for sure.And my daughters mother in law is a code endorsement officer in San Jose they have police powers. 

@Gregory Brooks, In order to get an accurate comp for your rental, do an internet search of "homes for rent in _________ neighborhood or ________ zip code".  

Rough to tell - - surf internet for venders in your area

The reason a lender should never do a title search is because if they make a mistake in doing something they really aren't trained in (like an attorney or title clerk in a title plant that has more access to title matters than you do) the error is on you making any commitment or funding, if a title plant does it, it's insured and on them.

Everything for me also depends on a high speed internet connection as I trade Futures on my laptop to make money each morning.

The low split companies will tell agents to get trained up at the 50/50 companies and then come to them when they get experienced.These days some mainly licensed investors who do not care if their brokerage goes under will do investment activity and slam any licensee in to try and do volume.
