It doesn't have to be fancy, but it’ll help you keep everything organized, especially if you need to provide more detailed information down the line.

Towels get used on the shoes, fancy cutlery goes missing, no one wipes their feet, wine stains...

Doesn't have to be anything fancy, basics that they will need.

May be able to google too.Most wholesale carpet stores will quote you a lot less than the guys advertising on TV and with big fancy showrooms but know there is still room to negotiate but may take you purchasing several times so that the salesman realizes you are a return customer.

Code requires functional not fancy.

Next I think I'll read Brandon Turner's "The Book on Rental Property Investing" as that seems like what I'm drawn to initially.Beyond that, I'm focusing on:-Scanning/reading any posts that catch my fancy-Keeping an ongoing notebook of things I want to dive into further-Reaching out/making local connections (KC area)-Discovering if there are any clubs/meet-ups/groups I should joinI think with that, my path will start to take shape.

@Mason Hickman- valid points, wife loves doing the decretive fancy stuff, so that’s my plan for now.

No one really talks about this but they should because a lot of people get stuck buying a new fancy home and then in 12-24 months they are under water.Again not everywhere but in a lot of places where you see a small phase of builds go up and then it’s off to another city or county.The other thing that is not talked about much is home prices if the home price is under say $200K the builder loses interest.

Evan I will not invest in a sponsor that I see either on instagram in the shiny new home, fancy cars etc. or acts as an influencer with all these training programs.

Once we hit junior year and started leaving the dorms, we had established ourselves well enough in our college town that we weren't going home for the whole summer anyways.
