The inconvenience and expense is way cheaper than needing to boot a squatter.

And, it paid me so that when I was ready to buy my first, second, third, up to 9th rental, I had income to qualify for loans.Now, could you hit up your friends and family to fund a flip right out of college, and jump right into it?  

I'm based in NJ it's so expensive here.

With all of the capital behind you, why aren't you using less expensive bank originated financing?

If you close within 6 months the most (assuming single family) is the LESSOR of 75% or what you paid for the property plus closing costs. if you have NO financing on the property AND you have waited to close after 6 months you can use the new value and borrow up to 75%. 

I have no idea what the cost would be for some sort of them spraying stuff all over the place, but it might be a small expense compared to losing a valuable tenant.

If your new it can be very expensive.

You are going to see these benefits in the long term, and while you live there you will save on your monthly expenses and also get tax benefits doing so. 

Paid by the hour, there is no incentive for success.If you don't want to work with a (good) buyer's agent, before I would hire an attorney, I would get licensed myself.

I definitely want to keep it simple and less expensive
