It won't surprise anyone to know that there is a fair amount of hyperbole out in the media these days.Fortunately, NY lawmakers have not mandated (yet) the method of payment or lease terms that landlords must accept as part of running THEIR business.So, for example, I only offer M2M leases, and the local HA requires a year lease to issue vouchers. 

I look forward to hearing about everybody’s experiences on this method of REI.

A better way in my opinion is a promissory note secured by the property and title transferred to you.

And don't even get me started on their lending to people with the "security" of a W-2 vs business owners that know how to make money.

I have experience with a similar association for my rental property in WA.https://masslandlords.net/laws/security-deposits/

I'm curious what methods most investors in the area use to successfully source their deals.The rehab process is probably where I could use the most guidance given I have no background in the industry.

You can suggest that you will give their full security deposit back on the spot for a move out by x date.

@Rush Wall, I have not used direct mail, but heard of others using that method successfully.  

Contractor turned out to be both an associate of the realtor and the repair guy for the PM.Perhaps not the preferred method of putting a team together, especially if you are risk averse, but in the end it worked out very well for me.
