We are clear about ownership with our tenants and primarily communicate via text.

It's in their best interest that everything is finished before they pay out.So, if there are items that are left undone and are normally done in a mortgageable house , then it's important to figure out where the communication breakdown is.

And I think Concord is a good long-term bet, and likely more consistent appreciation than a tertiary Bay Area city like Richmond.

When I was getting ready to execute the lease and had sent them a draft lease, they disappeared for about a week (no communication, nothing).

Cres Properties, 513-561-7368, www.cresproperties.com, I believe they've been in property management since the early '70s, A+ with the Better Business Bureau, great references, statements on time every month as well as deposits, good communication.

They also seem very open to communicating with members.A side question Christina, I had a KW realtor tell me that wholesaling in AK was either illegal or would soon be illegal.

This having been said, since I am bouncing job-to-job and job-hunting right now, is there anyway to get a small duplex or triplex financed when you cannot show a consistant income?

After I pick one up i'll likely up the budget and see if I can consistently get 1 a month off of Adwords Alone.  

So you have to crack down consistently and across the board.I am also a real estate investor now and would say that you have to be sure about the finances of the HOA.
