It is about embracing life's storms and not just waiting for them to pass but learning how to enjoy them and grow through them.Just as learning to dance in the rain requires us to embrace the rain, learning to enjoy life's challenges requires us to have a positive mindset and a willingness to learn and grow from our experiences.

I think to be successful in life is to focus on one strategy, or nice as some call it, embrace it and learn as much as possible and then attack it.

Really interesting strategy of converting a duplex into a single family to rent by the room.I love that you tried something new and continue to embrace challenges that help you grow.

It is difficult outside the REI and BP community to talk about financial success - we embrace it here.

I embrace the contrarian mindset.

Many investors fear issues with the lease and right of way but I embrace it. 

If the paint is in good condition it should never soak into the brick but what happens when the paint peels or cracks and allows penetration into the brick not behind the brick ?

Hope to see you later this year or next year.Regarding VTBs: There is a lot of information out there, but as with many things regarding investing in Real Estate, and as Roy hinted at, it has to do with "feel".By that I mean looking for clues and hints (sometimes they will be in answer to you asking the right questions, or making certain suggestions) that the Listing Agent (if there is one) can be molded to embrace a VTB (he still gets paid on Closing, so why not??)

I also hope it's embraced without significant successful NIMBY pushback.

Water penetration is definitely my UTMOST CONCERN here. - Paint is in really bad shape, peeling all over the place.
