I just had a new tenant move into my 3rd floor and recently got a text from the 1st floor tenant complaing about them constantly being loud and slamming the door into the house (the first floor bedroom is right next to the entry door to the house) at all hours into the night. As a landlord I dont really feel like this is my responsibility to address. As a tenant, whenever another person in a different unit was being loud, I would simply ask them to stop and that usually worked. Shouldn't my tenants do the same, and then if it persists with out change is when I could step in and remind the 3rd floor of the lease terms about being quiet? 

@Peter MacKercher, yeah I'm working with my agent to have them send me some, but like @Kamil Pieniadz was saying, I would like to do as much of the leg work up front before sending to them so I don't waste their time.

im trying to find comps and determine ARV of properties in st Louis but every site im looking at (Zillow, realty, truila) has removed all prices of past sold houses. anyone else running into this or have any idea why that might be the case?

Did you get this taken care of already? If not, I can most likely whip something up for you, as long as they are in fact diagrammatic and don't need to be signed and sealed drawings. 

Hi All. Im looking to start inventing in St Louis and am currently shopping around for insurance to find out what I can expect to pay on a single family home. Do you have any recommendation for an insurance broker or an agent?

thanks in advance,

Josh

I haven't done this yet, but am looking to for my next deal. One of the the things Ive heard, if you're trying to refi for a buy and hold, is you should have a conventional lender lined up ready do go when the work is complete. You don't want to finish the rehab work and then start looking for a conventional lender while you're still carrying the cost of the hard money lender. 

I agree with @Tracy Streich, buy a digital key pad for the door. Its a small cost but will pretty much guarantee you don't have to spend your time going to a house to unlock a door. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Sc...

Thanks Tom, is it an option if you dont have the 25% first? Exaggerating with for the purpose of this topic, what if I have zero dollars, can I seller finance the down payment and then use a bank for the other 75%, making monthly payments to both parties each month 

Can you do something along the lines of getting 75% financing from the bank and work out a deal with the seller where you finance the down with them? So you as the buyer would be financing 75% with the bank and 25% with the seller. 

Have you checked out the points guy (https://thepointsguy.com), they usually have summaries of current cc deals and whatnot at any given time.
