I’ve been offering a $100 referral fee for existing tenants who refer a new tenant to any of my properties.

I question if the person that has issues matching 1) knows how to feather 2) has the original paint color/code. 

Explore my personal favorites, Set For Life by Scott Trench or The Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey, for invaluable financial insights.3.

One caveat to this strategy is that you can’t live in a property that your IRA owns, nor can you rent it out to anyone else who may be considered a disqualified person like your spouse or child.Feel free to connect with me and send me a direct message if you want to learn more!

One thing I would add here is to check prior landlord references, not just from their current one.

Not that it cant or wont, but unlikely.If OP applies for homestead on a new property, then I personally would not lie during the application about receiving the exemption on the existing property.

Build connections with local professionals, talk to them in person, and value there time over yours.

What if the person staying at your place signed a contract but their 1st payment check bounced.

If you feel the need for in-person mentorship, reach out to prominent local investors and try and strike a deal to learn from them.

Awesome to see a new investor-minded person here.. do you have a favorite real estate success story already?
