@Alec Barnes As the owner of a property management company in Texas, I completely agree that a solid screening process is essential for placing quality tenants.

I just closed a DSCR loan on a Duplex with Total Quality Lending.

Focusing solely on numbers often leads to the purchase of low-quality properties.

I think the first place to start is evaluating quality deals.

I also like contractors that have packets that allow you to pick out the stuff that you want to use for that project, which reduces the quality control process..

Saturation is definitely upon us but quality product continues to get booked just like other markets.

A warranty can bring peace of mind, especially if the tenant values quality and reliability.Here’s our rule of thumb:For budget-friendly rehabs: Used appliances from a reputable source can be a smart choice.

@Nicholas A. your shotgun approach has a high probability of getting the exact quality you put into it.95%+ of real estate agent, many of them posting they are "investor-friendly", only know how to deal with owner-occupied transactions. 

Maybe we got lucky in that department, or maybe it was just a quality built property.Happy New Year and best of luck in 2025. 

I've heard nothing but complaints from customers AND their franchise agents reegarding the quality of their 800-number service center.
