@Connor Hibbs thank you..you are 100% correct.

If I believe the prep work as at fault and can show that then I just would refuse to pay until it gets corrected.

They know the system, file everything correctly and on time.

Yes, correct.

If a bedroom has two (or more) separate windows; one functions as intended but the other does not... the functionality/egress requirement is achieved via the functioning window, correct?

Residents can pay $1600 for rent and be in nicer areas of Memphis with better food, school, job, and transportation options. 

Hi-Desert market seems very saturated now and I do think the market will see some correction by the abundance of Airbnb's. 

You are better off making a small investment on your own, maybe a two-family, and use it as a proof of concept.If you don't know anything, trying to source deals off-market will just be taking money and burning it on postcards without the correct systems behind and the incentive for people to call.

However, the worst decision in real estate investing are made because of emotional attachment to property and both of these have that potential (although they also have high value if done correctly).

You are correct you can learn a lot from books, podcast, shows.
