This being my first investment i being cautious and careful to not make a bad investment and loose interest later.

However, I'm also in strong agreement with the licensed ccw approach too. if at all possible, bring the person and the ccw. make sure you bring someone that will have your back and can assist you if necessary. being able to identify the perp after they've battered/killed you is important in the eyes of justice, yet its not really preventative. hopefully most realize the difference. if someone has malicious tendencies towards a real estate agency/sales people, r.e. investor its the preventative measures that could save your life and that matters most. the reality is as many people that are in prison...there are a lot of sick people loose in the public of anytown usa. we all have access to phones to try to dial 911 but the opportunity may not be available. self-defense is first priority in my book.kudos,Mary 

One thing to note when looking at the individual markets, you can make or loose money in any market.

I am actually very happy now to have found the Fair Market Rent values of Florida because now I can at least have a loose idea of what the average rents are like in areas I am not as familiar with. 

I see loose wires in the bathroom that will need GFIs, one closet door missing, boarded up back door and window, broken glass on the floor at side of house, a porch roof that looks damaged. 

There is nothing wrong with loosing sleep at night when you've tossed a babies crib in the street in the morning.

Can I include anything for the month of September as they were in there all day today and failure to leave on the 26th made me loose an entire week of prep time?

Not to be rude but are you looking to loose money on purpose for tax benefits of some sorts? 

I am 1 person don't like to get my family involved, how can I structure an LLC to utilize the Trump new tax deduction and legal protection when california don't recognize 1 member LLCs and loose all the LLC legal protection?
