I'm playing with the idea of embracing the transient life style of the young enlisted guys and putting each on an individual lease that has a higher rent that if it were split.

As an agent once you identify your niche you have to be willing to embrace the consistent repetition to master your craft, even when it gets extremely boring. 

That just how businesses are run: as distinct, separate entities.As a business person, you need to get rid of the consumer "cut corners to avoid spending" mindset and embrace the entrepreneur's "cost of doing business" mindset.

I'm Okay with that matter fact I embrace it.

There will always be someone younger and hungrier coming for you (metaphorically) and once you embrace that truth and wake up and grind each and every day, you will do great. 

I would embrace the opportunity to network and find a Mentor.Cheers,Tausani

Maybe some of you don´t mean this  per se but in general your mindset is embracing clear and precise dog whistles that are utilized to marginalize groups, targeting them for discrimination.

"Subtle Art of Not giving a F*ck" by Mark Manson taught me to embrace the fear of failing and use it as a learning tool.

Shorter terms certainly won't hurt you - lower interest rate, higher ROI on that specific property :-)If you haven't already absorbed it - I recommend you fully embrace the 50% rule - plan like operating costs (excluding financing) are going to consume 50% of your rents. ie don't spend 100% of your cashflow on living and get caught by vacancy, economic downturn, rising interest rates, new roof etc :-)My advice is to just keep talking specifics with your Dad about his investment objectives so you and he will understand each other and enjoy your great relationship.

To make the numbers work.Thankfully, in the last year I have either overcome the issue or accepted/embraced the reality.
