I would check reviews and question current customers.

Don't get me wrong the money is great and there will be LOTS LOTS more to be made once the market corrects itself and all the newbies go back into hiding, but it's all about doing something good and helping others. 

I hope to be able to do some deals like that in future :) I think you made an excellent decision, nicely done.

Soon after they moved in we made the mistake of trying to be "good landlords" and accommodated some of their requests, including a new bathroom fan. 

I also fix and flipped a house last year, just to do it, and made a little money but nothing to write home about.

The buyer made payments for a few months, ran the business into the ground, and stopped paying.

Then i go on their website & after Exhausting my efforts, seems you Either Must be a customer/Member of theirs to even Purchase these i Believe, Or POSSIVBLY WITH A REFERRAL FROM A MEMBER YOU CAN GET THEM OR AT LEAST GET A DISCOUNT ON BECOMING A MEMBER.B/C I See These as Extremely Valuable (your welcome if you do too)ID BE EXTREMELY APPRECIATIVE TO ANY INSIGHT OR HELP.I INVEST IN SOUTHEASTERN MICHIGAN & APPRECIATE ANY THOUGHTS OR HELP IN OBTAINING A MAP..(..As $2-600 is far too much for a little map.)Thank you Again for your time, & i Really Hope this helped some others out with the idea.

Then we would have problems with the neighbors or the customer putting in their trash .

On a simliar note, the current owner is MIA as far as I can tell, which has made the Short Sale drag on for some time...

A handshake might be an agreement, but it doesn't spell out the promises made to one another.
