I buy value-add and they often have below market rents and so when their lease ends/if it has ended when I'm the new owner I put them on a month-to-month lease; I also don't raise to market right off the bat (personal choice).The reason for M2M is if they end up not being a good tenant I can give a 30-day notice or can offer them a new lease at a monthly rent that makes me endure their nonsense with a smile on my face. 

Unless you have some rock-solid references, face-to-face is your safest bet, Bryan.

So if I really thought something was about to smack me in the face I might just move before I got smacked.Luckily for me I just live in this basketcase state. 

The biggest challenge players face is finding available courts.

Ask them to send you any deals that meet your criteria.Now, one of the challenges you will face is your lack of experience.

So I would say the whole story nicely in their face:) I am a new agent who just relocated to the area and am currently renting.

The problem in front of your face is your not tapped into deal flow.

I haven't gotten into the details of a merchant agreement in a long time to know if this is a problem.I don't believe a credit card, on its face, is neither an asset nor a liability.

Because I have a face, I am advertising too much.

Hopefully by not getting in their face, I don't upset them and that they will not vandalize the property.
