This allowed me to control renovation costs, streamline operations, and accelerate my investment growth.

Items such as this that could be easily replaced by almost any LL at a very minimal cost, will turn into a $135 aggravation at best if you overlook it!

I really trusted my agent and knew several people who had invested in Reno so I took the leap after trying and failing for years to buy my own home in really high cost cities where I lived (NYC, DC, SF Bay area). 

Both tenants just moved out.I just got a bid to correct the foundation the right way by the most reputable company I could find (full underpinning, 60+ piers) ~$65k, plus costs of repairing drywall, paint, vacancy, and new flooring.

I am a co-host in Dallas and Waco, TX and I have an idea of what types of owners and properties I want in my co-host portfolio----and with each client/property I learn which qualities are working for my business setup or what qualities I need to be working on to upskill.

@Voley Martin Make sure you get updated insurance costs.

It's basically built on top of WordPress core and they made it simple and easy to navigate.Where in wordpress, you have to get some plugins (some are also monthly paid) to achieve the same kind of functionality.SEO is not just about having a good hosting/platform and features, it's about utilizing the features in a way so your brand has visibility and people that come into your website gets proper value of their time spent.Here's a table comparison for you that I wrote earlierNow whether you have a carrot or a wordpress site, for SEO, you will need:- Website Credibility (Personalisation)- On Page SEO (Keywords, Titles, Meta Tags, Description, Image ALT Tags & Optimization etc)- Social Media Presence (Regular Posts/Videos and Engaging with your audience)- Monthly Content Publishing (Regular Blogs & Location Pages)- Monthly OFF Page SEO (Citations, Backlinks)Now if you consider the cost, end of the day it's quite same for both the platforms.But if you are starting fresh, I see no point of having their 180$ plan, you can continue with 89$/month plan from carrot and assign someone in your team to put regular blog posts and update the location pages.Or if you want to use WordPress and get someone setup the website and do regular content updates for you, then It can take 3-6 months to start seeing visible growth in organic traffic if all the things mentioned above are taken care of.

I run Forged Home Buyers, a San Antonio wholesaling business, and my business partner is an agent with Virtus Realty. 

The webpage has them based in Maryland but they aren't listed in the state's business directory.

Thus creating a monopoly that I don't know how to get out of.I've worked years in this industry from the PM-end and never seen anyone try to bill a percentage off the security deposit and, though a little digging is showing me it CAN be done, it seems like bad business.
