I prefer to get a google voice number and link it to my cell so that that is the number the tenants know and use rather than giving out my personal cell.Have some means of tracking income and expenses for reporting and tax purposes.My state doesn't require a separate bank account for deposit so I just have the single account for income, expenses, and deposits.1 SFH shouldn't be any problem at all.

I have recently read :Rental Property InvestingBook on Flipping HousesBook on estimating Rehab costs90 Day Journal ( good to focus on goals)Other good overall business mindset books and general personal development books are:Any Tim Ferris’s book Extreme OwnershipUnshakable (finance)Work the system Awaken the giant withinThe millionaire fast laneThe E-Myth10x ruleNext on my reading list is:David Greene’s BRRRR bookLong distance real estate investing Landlording on autopilotWhen I first started reading stuff I didn’t want to waste the time or money on books, what started as a small habit of maybe a few pages a week or so turned into about a book or 2 a month and a large library of books, definitely attribute my progress over the last few years to the books I’ve read!!

My cell is 6143617575

Same houses in Winter Park might be $300k but will not rent for $2700-3000/mo.And yes, the phone number and email from my signature are my personal cell and email, feel free to reach out anytime. 

I "try out" contractors and now only work with lenders that answer the phone in the evenings and weekends and that give my their direct cell number (when I work). 

If you are not a subscriber to the Saint Louis Business Journal, go to the local library and review the various categories and/or the 'Book of lists' published by the Journal. 

Spend some time looking at the map to understand the geography, read articles from RE sections of the Inquirer and Business Journal, go to  some Meetups  - that promise some content (there are some that do not really have much content).

We also weren’t able to have our cell phones out due to “disclosure agreements” The whole thing felt like a waste of time and a scheme.

Pentagon is a secure building, so I don't have easy access to cell phone or regular email.What I do is schedule time at work to do real estate. 

I continually tried to call both their cell phones and never got a response or call back and the only responses I would get would be vague explanations through text messages of where this supposed $7,000 came from that was never once discussed in the 6 months of rehabbing and numerous conversations the three of us had about the budget and expectations.
