She'll quickly learn which properties perform best, how to handle tenants and contractors, and much more.  

I believe that having multiple properties can enhance the performance of each property I own.

Hi Stetson,I own a STR in Flathead County that performs exceptionally well.  

If we built a spreadsheet of the overall responses from the Mafia and how many were veiled attempts at business, I would bet it is close to 80 percent.I know I am not the only one annoyed every day, so please post your thoughts here so BiggerPockets can review them.I do know someone who bought multiple properties with a former Mafia member and the properties are still performing so this isn't a referenda on how good the agents are.

I do have stocks that I could liquidate to throw at the principle but they have been performing great lately and I’d rather use those funds down the road as another down payment on a future property.Any advice appreciated Christian

I hope that makes sense.That said, you can do research into the company and see if they have a good rep, etc; however, if they don't perform you are out the money.You should really only pay the lender if the deal closes.

So I am thinking my next move since I don't like how well the mail performed,  is to try SEO.

I am a certified high performance coach and psychologist. 

Furthermore, in our lease we outline that if the tenant fails to perform their maintenance obligations than we may complete their obligations on their behalf and at their expense.

Two critical components are key to legally performing the above scenario. 1st, there must be consideration for a real estate transaction to be valid.
