@Conrad Metzenberg  Avocado toast is a great one. speaking of gentrification indicators, i've noticed some that stand out:more than one night time dog walker, extra points if it's a female on a cell phone; tattoo parlors, funky coffee place, small niche workout gyms, anything Asian that isn't Chinese, all within 3-4 blocks; any hippy or hipster sightings, extra points if you see them at Whole Foods later; very low people count in the middle of the day 

HAVE YOU EXPERIMENTED WITH DIFFERENT SCRIPTS MALE/FEMALE?

About 40% of my mastermind group is female, you might find the more you get into this you're not alone.

The third person is a single female doctor.

If I were you, I would use the US for initial investments and education, but then shift focus to Asian markets.

Here's an article that talks about a court case that appears to address your question: https://fairhousing.foxrothschild.com/2012/03/articles/fha-basics/are-rental-roommates-covered-under-the-fha/(In the case, the court asked the question "If a tenant seeking a roommate expresses a preference in an advertisement for a female roommate or a roommate without children, does that person violate the Fair Housing Act (FHA)?" 

Lacks the oomph of a nice BRRRR but the steady payouts at 7-9% are good enough for most of our investors. you may want to look at the right kind of notes  there are portfolio notes that your clients can invest in and are not subject to any tax in the US> I do this for my Asian clients. 

*While I used feminine pronouns as most bookkeepers (or clerks) are female, the best one I ever worked with was male.

I didn't want to spend a ton of money on my living expenses each month, but also didn't want to live in a sketchy area as a single female.

I was incredibly uncomfortable with the entire situation as I'm a 5'2, 120 pound female and when she was chatting with me, it seems like she wasn't in a right frame of mind.What should we do?
