Though the buying process has become... unnecessarily low quality and unprofessional due to the third-party attorney, ServiceLink.When I won the bid, I was asked who I prefer to represent me.

Then find something you are willing to live in (you may have to look beyond your area and quality of neighborhood) that will still cover all your expenses and don't buy until you do.  

The term "Lead" excludes any Opt-Out's and in general is someone I have spoken with and either set up an appointment or deemed worth putting on a follow-up sequence.I now have enough quality data for the KPI's to start to mean something however I have no idea what is "normal".

Hi everyone,I am getting closer to purchasing my first property in the Utah market and would like some advice on what qualities I should seek in a lender? 

If it's a less desirable area, you would get a lower rent amount and (typically) a lesser quality tenant.

From what I've seen; these days only really low quality tenants would smoke indoors.

I think I made a mistake in tenant screening, but can get better quality tenants in the property. 

They are brokering real estate so make them PROVIDE good quality information like you could get from a licensed broker.

Quality workmanship fairly good price seeing how everything is new and finished.

The traditional syndication presumes that there is already a relationship between the investor and the sponsor, so that alone makes it a superior method.
