It's important that those people understand that there is great risk that comes with doing something that might seem harmless and innocent on the surface (i.e. doing light renovations without a permit)

But it seems like the newer ones that have brought in that orange clay dirt don't have nearly as many problems.

Everyone else on your team will be transaction-based and not really involved after a purchase.We're in the Metro Detroit area, so you may want to follow our blog here on BP, but at least read the following posts:How to “Screen a PMC Better than a Tenant”: https://www.biggerpockets.com/member-blogs/3094/91877-how-to-screen-a-pmc-better-than-a-tenant-part-1-services-and-processesIn our experience you will need to:1) Learn to "Maintain to the Neighborhood", not your personal standards2) Tenant-Proof everything you can Hard surface flooring, not carpeting (too easy to trash) Same basic paint for everything No garbage disposals for them to break Only spring-type doorstops also with plate on the wall Glue rubber mats under sinks to prevent water damage Sheet aluminum on walls around stovetops, for easy grease removal Towel racks - screw 1x3 to wall studs, then screw rack to that Install low-profile downspout ext, not aluminum that always disappear Plan on cleaning gutters and leaves up in the fall as tenants won't Avoid garage door openers3) Have a great application screening process: Check credit for evictions & convictions, utility collections Focus on employment/income stability Require bank or debit card statement - you'll be surprised what they spend their money on!

I do see some multifamily property come up to the market  surface.

Everything sounds good on the surface, but always look at the fees associated with the product.

On the surface there appear to be many great things going on for the city and state overall in terms of population growth and still over from California to Seattle and Portland.*** what I have found difficult to understand investing in Boise however is if the overall fundamentals are there, and not just because it's a more affordable place, more land, more nature.

If I'd left all the right cleaning supplies, they'd not scratch any surface with anything random.Gonna try!

If they allow no painted friction surfaces you may need to have them professionally restored to pass.

Michael Clay I am pretty friendly with my tenants.
