My name is Jonathan Herdina, I have lived in the suburbs of Portland, Oregon my entire life (Beaverton and Hillsboro to be more precise).

I found that $50 was buying around 350 leads or at least in that ball park 

I just need to keep my head up and plow through this initial phase because once the ball gets rolling, I'll be more confident.

I'm shying away from the Heloc as it feels like I'd have too many balls up in the air.

I am going to talk to an attorney that specializes in evictions to get the ball rolling now.

can’t wait to get my first investment under my belt and really get the ball rolling!!!

Don't help the tenant do their job.Also, let's look into that crystal ball you have and see what you are doing in 30 years. 

So I started thinking about what I was going to need to do to get the ball rolling faster.

My attorney told me they have a lawsuit and I took that as play ball. 

I've had a few contractors give ball park quotes around $10k3) Proceed with the code compliant retrofit. $4k for the engineered plans, $700 for the permit, and (according to the engineer) $20-$25k for the work itself.
