@Antonio Pettus Learn to sleep faster... Really though something that helps me out with time management is planning ahead and preparation. I am a husband, father of two, work a full time job and can definitely relate to the gym and cooking thing. I find preparation to be my best friend with getting through the day. From cooking large quantities of food in advanced for the week to when I'm going to make my phone calls the next day. I have a planner that I write everything I need to do for the next day and at approximately what time I plan to do it (some times the kids like to make that a challenge). I don't like using a phone app or anything like that I prefer to physically jot them down on paper that I can refer to throughout the day and cross them out as I complete them. This may not hold true for others but for me still being in the early stages of my business I find that I do have to sacrifice sleep some times if it means getting things done to help the business grow. Hope some of that helps and good luck!

@Julio Cruz Welcome to BP, you picked a great place to learn about real estate investing. I would highly recommend reading the ultimate beginner's guide to REI here on BP, to figure out what is your area of interest. That read is what got me hooked on the site.

@Jason Narayan Welcome to BP! Luckily you live in a good tristate area for real estate investing. Like Jeremy already mentioned, you should check out the Cincinnati REIA. I'll be at this Thursdays meeting.

Well I made an appointment and went to the property but it doesn't appear we are going to be able to agree upon a price at the moment. I believe he is grossly underestimating the money it will cost to get the place market ready and he isn't motivated enough yet to go any lower. He said he was going to get someone to give him some estimates on the things that need to be fixed and I think that should be a good reality check for him. I'm going to continue to keep in touch with him and hope when he's finally tired of the place I'll still be there waiting.
