I don’t know if there will be some recourse to PayPal but it’s definitely business transaction.CashApp is free and takes 2 business days to get money into my account, however, I’m thinking if a tenant pays with credit card (you can attach debit and credit card to CashApp), then it might be same situation.My Tenants usually don’t have good enough credit for credit cards to pay rent, but potentially it’s possible.CashApp amounts to transfer depending on the bank of the Tenant: some can pay only $500/day, some had to pay fees because their account in a credit union.It seems like old fashion way to deposit money in the bank looks more reliable.

wherever you are looking for land I'd argue it's a bad strategy unless you are buying for pennies on the dollar. where I'm at in columbus ohio there is a 12 months supply of land on the market so it's a buyer's market. unless the market is a seller's market which can be established with a real estate agent (less than 6 months supply on the market, and really I'd say 3 months), then I'd avoid this strategy 

Supply paint, pizza and beer and you should save about 4 grand but results may vary.Another option is just to paint the areas that look the worst and attempt to match existing paint colors--this is usually what I do if anything at all.
