Post: What was your "why" for getting into Real Estate Investing?

My deeper reasons are these:

1. Being available to Jesus in mastering my kingdom in his pace, provision, love and goodness.

2. Being therefore available to my wife and children instead of working long OT hours for someone else's agenda (good or bad)

3. Pour into community, not strip it.  To serve those under my care (tenants) with respect and dignity.  (even a bill or notice, done justly can be loving)

Money has never been a motivator for me.  Freedom and joy and purpose and true life are.  
What are you willing to die for?  What stories do you love?  We are all made epically, how will you boldly step forward in the way YOU only can?  

Thank you for this post, whether you read my reply or not, it helped me freshen up this morning.  God bless you and your families BP people.  

check out https://billandkimcook.com/ These are some great mentors to grab onto.  

Ray, 
You already know what you want to do.  You want to do what is right, throw the book out the window and bless this person.  Believe that God is your provider and will bless you beyond the capability of numbers and $$(Matt 6).  The world needs men like you to step forward and not toss the down-and-out to the ground.  Be the landlord that lives by example. Take a step in faith and choose to not only accept here $800 a month, but look for other ways to serve her.  Look in your heart, you have what it takes.  Love is the point.  Love is blessed.

Thomas S thank you sir.  Why month to month instead of a year? They are month to month now from previous owner. I thought that was because they were planning on the sale.

I am a new investor. I just closed on my first two rentals in Baltimore City. Two adjacent Duplexes.

I am having difficulty with getting available time with each currently occupying tenant to change locks, get leases signed and everything else.

The previous property manager was terrible and had barely any documentation. One lease is missing and a security deposit.

How do I reasonably work with my availability vs. tenant availability? (This isn't my full time work yet.)

How do I do this transition well? What are some lessons learned with this transition "you who have gone before me" would pass on? Any newbee advice would be great. I'm sure there's a ton I'm not considering.

Method of payment for rent thoughts? How many should I offer? Using Cozy and mail right now.

Lease help please. Using Master Lease on BP now.

Thank you,

Don
