Thank you so much for the advice!

That was an excellent non-answer to my question, Skyler. hihi :)No they are not all the same. some are only interested in dealing with conventional purchases other are as you say better at handling assignments or double closes, some are commercial specialty, etc....A investor friendly one would be, at least from my point of view, one that understands there may need to be some last minute wheeling, dealing, and adjustment made to close a deal, understand what needs to be done and do not freak out about creative deals.Maybe my understanding or thoughts are wrong but that's what I meant by investor friendlyregards :) 

Alternatively, you would need to drop your rents by $500 or more to have the same impact on your cashflow and your value.

If your current photos are performing well, you don’t need to change them often—just refresh when there’s something new to show!

No need to dig through lists—just explore the map and find potential investment opportunities quickly!

Purchase price: $325,000 Cash invested: $50,000 This time I acquired a property that needed little to no work.

You may need to replace insulation, sheetrock, or even framing material.The only way I would touch it is to have a contractor give me an estimate for renovation, then lower the price far enough to handle that renovation.

Quote from @Zachary Deal: Choose neutral safe tones and get nice materials but don't splurge too much on very fancy cabinets, counters, appliances that someone else may not value the same as you.This is so true.

But if your PITI is $105k, then not so much.

You don't need to learn REI in your job, that's a side thing.
