They do an incredible job at a very reasonable price.

I went down the personal BK road many years ago due to wife's incredible amount of medical debt when she got hurt at work.

Wow Mathew Wray that is incredible!

I would lose the awnings; those metal awnings always look incredibly dated, and unless you are in the south where there's fierce sun, they make it dark inside.

I think my strategy next year depending on the market will be two fold until we can buy more investments than 4.1) To try to buy some all cash houses in the 50k price range that produces pure cash.2) To flip our cheaper mortgaged houses (2 of our houses have mortgages under 80k) into houses that are more expensive and better long term assets.

Red flags (such as code violations etc) generate motivation, combined with equity generally lend themselves to producing deals.

Such an incredible wealth of knowledge and people willing to share their expertise and opinions!

Historically real estate investing does not produce an income to live on until you have built up a lot of equity.Some buy, fix, sell or other variations.

Later, after 10 years of rent increases, the units were producing $1,100 a month.

Even if the property was listed with an agent you would still need someone to produce most of the documents as an agent only gets involved with the purchase agreement.I do not understand the question concerning insurance.
