Rick Santos Help - Leases, first time landlord

(I would advise if the answer is yes to make sure no viscous breeds are allowed and also get an extra security deposit and possibly extra monthly rent.)Also, something that helped us that you might want to consider is for your credit check is that the score matters, but we look deeper than the score if there are things that come up (and in New Brit there are usually things that come up).If tenants are skipping out on "modern life essentials" like utility bills, cell phone bills, car payments that is a huge red flag.However, if it is a result of medical bills or student loans (or possibly a foreclosure during the crash) you may want to look past some of those.

Joy Mondala Moving to Detroit! Should I get my RE License and/or a FT job??
4 March 2016 | 1 reply
My fiance is a doctor there and it's definitely past time to shorten the distance between us, and of course I'm looking forward to this next step in building our lives together.HERE'S THE RUB: I just recently became licensed in CA (it's been a plan of mine as I want to invest in more RE) and because 1- I need to sell my primary residence in lieu of moving to Detroit, and 2- my parents are looking to unload a few of their rental properties starting this April, so I may as well make some easy money being their listing agent.As there are a lot of moving parts, it can seem a bit daunting: My tenants' leases will end in May so I can have time to clear everything out, move my things to Detroit, and get the house up to market.I will have to find the best way to step away from my FT job here (as they don't operate in MI) and I've started researching jobs in Detroit****The main complication about the job hunt is: I want to find something that of course will provide a stable income as I acclimate to the new life in Detroit but I also want to have enough time carved out to start finding flips and rentals AS WELL AS facilitate the selling of my parents' rentals back in CA (which is one of the reasons I got licensed remember).
