Have you had a lawyer look at it in the case a tenant challenges that clause during an eviction?

Having an actual business name on your lease is very important as the tenant will know they are not dealing with someone that does not understand the nature of the business. 

Still, without the MLS it proves to be more challenging.

I invest in central IL, and a big challenge has been property taxes.  

Being a fair distance form the assets you seek to acquire this can be a challenge with many hidden surprises.

Hey BP,I'm currently looking at a deal to flip and have run into some challenges!! 

I have a natural draw towards the "flipping" sector, as my background tends to lead me in that direction, but at this point only consider this as a secondary form of investment, wanting to invest the majority of my time and money into buy and hold properties.My short-term goal would be to flip a few homes to help develop substantial capital to purchase my first multifamily property (triplex/quadplex), in which I would like to live/rent/self manage.

Yeah, until recently when I kind of heard about hard money lending I naturally thought very negative about it.

You might be able to challenge this or how it was enacted.
