I have tenants initial a copy and give it back to me at move and, and keep another copy.

They would see me at home in the yard and I just told them I owned the house too.

Don,Will,and John are right on.What a typical Guru will do is throw the meat out there and get the potential investor in a frenzy and then they will buy a course to only get mostly fluff.I can tell you being a commercial broker and investor is hard work.I was breaking down trash the other day from a tenant that left so that bulk would pick it up from one of my units.I don't look at the work but where it will get me too and the experience and learning.Once you accept that you will work smart but also very hard you will get ahead.If you keep believing in silver bullets to instant riches then you will spend years trying every BS infomercial and magazine gig out there.What gets me is people with an investing dream getting the little money they have sucked away by a GURU that thinks they are just a number and revenue builder making them richer and richer.

I got really pissed when the mother (tenant1) called me at 8pm on Friday while having dinner with my wife.

They told me at the time that there was no way I could make a normal offer on it, or increase my auction bid to be above $50k.

It was a potential deal, but as it being the first one that I was attempting, to me at this moment it was a deal that fell through.

It makes mathematical sense and made sense to me at the time.

You’d have to be f’in kidding me.But let’s get to the meat of why you’re really reading this, because you want to know if we jumped in the Advanced Training Boat.No.

(not me at the time!)

If it's your deal, try to get it low enough to meet your buyers criteria and make your spread while leaving meat on the bone (hint: what buyers say doesn't necessarily match their actions).
