@Varun Batra Yeah forsure private message me your cell

The termite company told me the gas killed the live termites, but did not kill the eggs and I don't know if that is a crock of b.s. but that fumigation was done in 2004 and exactly where the live termites were after the building was fumigates is where my major problems are now.

Feel free to give me a follow on IG @crisnorm_mortgage my cell is there.

Even if I add back in your 20% in expenses and say we didn’t use property manager, you didn’t write off your cell phone, your internet, your new iPad, and nothing broke you have a $2,000 loss. 

I have learned a lot, and, importantly, saved up a nice nest egg.

For the contract stuff you should talk to a lawyer about that and someone already utilizing the strategies you are discussing, know the risks of the strategy you want to implement before moving forward and maybe try to shadow someone already doing them.Again my initial recommendation is that you put your work ethic and drive toward something with a more predictable payout, stop wasting hours working for Walmart, bring your earnings up and continue learning about this industry and then make a move for something bigger once you have a nest egg built up and have taken the time to develop enough skills to make it in whatever you decide to pursue.

@Julian Colvard Never give your cell number to tenants! 

@Chris De Celle thanks for the response.

It's the not wanting to work part that sabotages things...[4] Ole' Jed Clampit got his money for nothing (shootin' at some food) and his Chicks for free (they hatched out of eggs) (a Dire Straights and Beverly Hillbillies reference combined).

Think the cell phone companies would pay cash for debt?
