Thank you for sharing this Michael.John is spot-on about what a quality human being Quincy is and what a great role he has played in building the self-directed investment industry over the last 20 years.

Pricing in DFW probably means you wont live rent free,and will have to pay your fair share of normal rent, but you also get 3 more people contributing to your loan paydown and you get to keep the appreciation.Buy hey...maybe I'm wrong....go talk to a local bank or credit union near where you live and get a term sheet from them for financing. 

But the lawsuit reveals details that are hard to ignore: emails, phone calls, and even group meetings allegedly used to share strategies for keeping rents high.

Lived in basements, shared bathrooms, dealt with pest problems that preceeded me, etc.

Best of luck as you take the next steps, and feel free to share updates or ask more questions!

It’s great to see you jumping back in and sharing your amazing story, Cody! 

If (**redacting name of PM co**) Contracting would like to share the actual cost of repairs I'd be open to looking at those numbers as a reasonable cost.

What I can share is that the risk-reward will not be worth it as a 'newbie' due to your limited capital and inability to actively manage your properties. 

I funded this with US cash, as well as a loan with a Canadian bank.I have shared this process with many friends and other real estate buddies that commended my journey.
