My company purchases non performing loans from banks secured by commercial real estate with high equity.

Quote from @Vitaliy Zima: Hello,This may be a silly question but how do you post a property to a regular qualified tenants for one price and then to section 8 tenants for another price (or am I going to get myself in trouble for doing that)?

Hi Arun, dealing with security deposits can be tricky!

Any guidance or just scheduled phone calls to give me the basic rundown of how to secure my first tax lien in the state of North carolina.

And I think that like someone said above, these loans could end up being pretty safe for them from an LTV standpoint compared to regular bridge loans.Jean I would look at these but the rate of return would be far north of any HML rates .. more as a capital partner.. 

Quote from @Gary Campanaro: Hi Bigger Pockets collegues, I own a mortgage note on a SFR property in Canton, Ohio which was purchased by the borrower who secured the loan with a land contract.

My biggest challenge from my previous attempts was finding reliable contractors who actually show up and finish.For those of you successfully doing volume rehabs in WNY, what is your single best piece of advice for securing a reliable general contractor or a strong network of subs (plumbing, electrical, HVAC)?

Some people like to have a separate bank account for holding security deposits.  

If a prospective tenant can't come up with security, first, and usually last months rent they're not getting the keys to my property. 

@Felicia Richardson - Do you keep the security deposit funds in the same account at which you also receive rental payments?
