Typically the actual dogs are only left over night and picked up during the day depending on the property.

One has to wonder how many properties Helmsley picked up under market value because people knew he offered one price - take it or leave it.  

Hey @Jason Stiteler,I was using the spreadsheet that's under the Pick Markets > Picking a Market Worksheet and just analyzing those markets.

So even if you pick a state with stronger protections like WY or NV, the cause of action arose in the state where the tenant fell, so likely that the court where the accident happened would have jurisdiction.

It helps to start by picking one or two markets to research in depth, especially those that offer good value for your capital or align with your goals.For resources, I’d suggest diving into books like Rich Dad Poor Dad to build a solid real estate mindset, and maybe explore podcasts or online forums where real estate investors share experiences.

If they say no, we ask why, and occasionally, we can sway them if there had been a misunderstanding—for example, a lingering maintenance issue that hasn’t been addressed and they didn’t bother to call about.We don’t have time for a deep dive on lease renewals, but it’s definitely worth picking up a copy of Jeffrey Taylor’s The Landlord’s Survival Guide, which has all sorts of tips on getting tenants to renew.

So if you need 20k in staging, the pm is only going to charge 2k to go pick out all the stuff and set it up?

I have some clients who are brrring out properties and are able to pick up a couple at a time, and refinance in a blanket loan, get out most if not all of the money they put down on the original hard money/rehab loan, rinse and repeat.

You'll need to figure out how to wire it (it's not that tricky, a lot of devices have a 12v power supply) or pick a different model that can plug into a wall but has similar specs. 

The manager by action or inaction could be sued directly or in addition to the property owner for a tenant or guest being injured.There is an additional liability extension called personal injury or landlord personal injury that picks up the liability for a situation such as being sued for wrongful eviction or violating fair housing in some way.
