Nice discovery and definitely better for the environment. 

@Bofan Xu - I don't think it's standard practice but she might have a good reason to do it. I've always paid the property tax myself. It's normally a once (or twice) a year payment if it's not included in the mortgage payment. Have you verified with the city/county/state the payments that she is making are going to the correct place for the correct amount? 

Nice!

@Bofan Xu - Maybe. Did you ask her why she does it that way?

@Jaime Osuna - I haven't used them personally, but I believe @Zach Lemaster with Rent to Retirement is a legitimate turnkey provider probably worth checking out. Either way, definitely do your due diligence with any provider you choose.

Great job! Was this in California?

If you check Kiyosaki's twitter feed you'll see some very controversial predictions. It's probably wise to take a consensus of the expert economists instead of relying on one person's prediction of the future. 

Hi @James Blincoe -  you might want to refine your question a little to get a better answer. Is there a specific market you're looking at? Also, not all offers are created equal. Some investors make cash offers with quick closes, some offer above the asking price, and some don't put in any contingencies. 

@Austin Kessler -  If you do decide to do OOS investing, I highly recommend focusing on finding a stellar property manager as the main member on your team. You'll have a long term relationship with them and many times they are agents too. They can help in a lot of different ways. 

@Saeed Bayani - Try the online county records to start with.
