I've had similar experiences at our local REIA meetings (both GAREIA and Atlanta REIA).The sales presentations aren't the point: The real value is in the networking.The next time you go to a REIA event, I propose you get there early (or stay late) to run into the "greybeards" (both male and female, btw) who are actually investing the way you want to.

I think someone who is younger, or female (like it or not) might have a harder time investing in undesirable areas unless they had some muscle behind them.

Have posted on forum looking for female roomates.

I don't think I ever saw a Marine (male of female) that couldn't kick my a$$...You guys are knarly.

I had 3 teams male and female in each team.. they had great success this way..

A female prostitute lives with him and makes him money.2.

If I were you I would get a female friend to report this just in case because you will definitely lose the deal if it comes back to either one of the brothers that it was you.

Got a call at 10pm from a "friend" of the female applicant saying "what can I do so you'll take her but her not know I called you."

I was at an open house that was rehabbed.The entire house was rewired.The closets had lighting in them.Every female that walked through the house, said: "I wish that my closets had lights in them."

I do have a pretty detailed lease stating housing regulations with roommates, and also had an addendum signed re stating the rules and how I will be enforcing them.But there is more to it, the individual had a friend over, whom barged into the females room while she was sleeping asking for a ride home, and on another occasion I was also told the problematic roommate was drunk walking around the home with JUST a shirt on, with all the goods hanging out.
