More long-term, I think a good investment strategy for me would be to acquire rental properties with a buy-and-hold mentality to build a substantial passive income.I have a relative who lives in Dallas who I knew had a few businesses and real estate properties, so I called and asked his advice on how to get started.

From there, it's a mental scan of websites etc.

What I think they mean is sellers have basically already moved on mentally, so many do not want to deal with repairs (and if they do, it will be the lowest bidder with quality not a priority).

Auctioneer - same as above problems and they are too successful, making too much money and are too busy to do auctions for us.We are even thinking about have a training program for those who to be auctioneers - so that we can train people with an investor mentality to sell our deals.I'd like to hear your suggestion on OOS leads (Out Of State Leads).We even though about Face Time Auctions.

Craftsmen could be upset by the flip it fast mentality.

Then we require them to provide documentation from a qualified professional, such as a medical professional or mental health professional or social service case manager, that attests to the fact that the individual has a qualified disability AND that they are in need of this particular animal to assist them in relation to this disability.Also, keep in mind that although you can't deny a person with a qualified disability their right to keep a qualified service animal or ESA, you can require them to pay for damages as they occur.

I've got just a few years on you, but I wish I had your mentality at 24.
