Realtors are a great resource what a property can possibly be worth based on sold comparable 

I simply bid low and negotiated up based on rental history of the house.

Lessons learned?

I was just looking in our county's online court docket and see a company based in our area called something like Rent Recover handling plenty of cases, so I was going to check it out and see if maybe they can do something.

Based in Fairfax, VA I am a real estate investor.I am relatively new to property rental.

Speak with lenders to learn about the conditions and criteria of refinancing.

Even if it's just adding insulation or doing the painting at the end, you should determine how much involvement you are able or willing to take on ahead of time based on your budget.

The examples were very real world and they even provide a lot of excel and word tools for different aspects of the process that I will now use moving forward.They have more that covered specific parts such as project management, development, property management, etc.

Just beginning this journey and am trying to learn.

That creates synergy to get the project completed.
