I could see having all those utilities included be an issue because then they wouldn't care about running the heat/AC and I can't even imagine letting them hookup to our cable tv?

If you dont have a construction background you will find that fixing a house is not as easy as they make it out to be on TV and that every contractor out there will rob you blind if you dont know what stuff should cost.I've always had a pretty hands off management style so like to have "interests aligned" with the people working for me. 

I work in TV news so my accounting is sub par at best (we are not math people) but I just finished a seven month remodel here in California where I did most of the work myself... so I'm very handy and looking for deals and fixer uppers.  

@Jason Clark  we all find motivation from different places.Even those TV Guru's and bus tour Gurus who are so vilified on BP by the majority here ..

Also add the other real estate podcasts seen in the video I made herehttps://youtu.be/fT0CVZFlj6QThen buy a chromecast and watch videos on YouTube on your tv.

Do you have rules regarding the living room & sharing the TV (was it a free for all, or was it more like this is my TV & my house, I watch what I want to watch, you can go to your room and do your thing)?

Just recently, I setup new TV service at my house.

First of all I am not a tax person or lawyer and don't play one on tv so you shouid consult a professional in your areas.I'm sure someone with more properties may be able to better answer your question but here is my experience:I live in CA where we DO have state income tax and I have rentals in Ohio.

I've become almost 100% convinced that there is one real estate training company out there and all they do is create licensing deals with all the reality tv RE investor people.

I'm not a professional wholesaler, nor do I play one on TV:)My experience with lenders and assignments is that they hate it.
