@Horacio Gutierrez Like some mentioned, using Venmo is a very popular and secure way for people to transfer money instantly on their phones.

Do you like your job and just want to invest for secure cash flow for potentially early retirement?

They already gave you their social security number, birth date, income, kids' names, criminal background check authorization, etc... and they think a quick head-poke inside the front door is intrusive? 

Did you oversize the rooms a little or what method did you determine which size unit to install?

A year from now I want to be working on getting a second property under my belt by doing the BRRRR method. 

The brrrr method gets taken out of context to much on BP.

On residential some banks will provide a working capital deposit at closing that you can use for plans, permits, etc, but they will not release the first draw until the permit has been secured. 

Personal checks for security deposit aren’t a good idea, so I would recommend not accepting them as a payment method on move in.

We’re just at an impasse of what the next step could be to secure this property. 

So we are no way experience at all.Here is the info:- 3 UNITS - 2BD/1BA - 1 UNIT - 1BD/1BA- GYM ON PROPERTY UNDER UNIT 1- SECURITY SYSTEM IN EACH UNIT WITH 3 OUTDOOR CAMERAS- POOL WITH LARGE PARTY DECK- STONE FIRE PIT- SOLID SURFACE COUNTERTOPS- ENGINEERED WOOD FLOORS- STAINLESS STEEL APPLIANCE PACKAGE-Potential Rent Calculated to be: $1,800, $2,700, and $2,800.As a noobie investor looking to get experience, I thought I would help my father move down and help run the property, find tenants, market, manage, etc. until I can systemize it and move back to Boston, MA (where we are currently located).
