I spent 20 minutes on the phone explaining it to him but now we have laminated pictures with instructions: no more calls (BTW those faucets are the simplest things in the world to use).

It was the simplest conversation I've ever had and I said nothing except "I understand", "yes sir" and "no sir".I realize this isn't exciting to those of you with experience but for a newbie like me it was super exciting to practice what I've been reading and for the opportunity to come within 10 minutes of looking in my farming area.No I haven't made a deal yet (I'm still working on financing I wasn't really ready yet) but he's been emailing me pictures so he's interested, if the numbers make sense so am I.Wow that got long, sorry.

I can't be a very good landlord, I can't fix anything myself (my wife reminds me of that frequently), and I probably shouldn't be the one negotiating the deal unless it's highly complex because I lack the key ingredient for success in real estate... which is patience!

The most essential ingredient to ask for is finding out their timing and motivation. 

Now if there was manufacturing going on..then testing for ingredients will get difficult.

Also known as "too many chefs in the kitchen".Sometimes, the best things to do are the simplest and cleanest from a legal perspective.

It's so overwhelming it's like I forget how to do the simplest thing sometimes. 

You need to find a lender that doesn't have stupid overlays, and will instead look at checking any necessary boxes in the simplest way possible.

In its simplest form, Real Estate is merely a matter of supply and demand.  

It's probably the easiest and simplest way to digest the information.
