So my "perspective is no doubt jaded."

A few years ago I started working on a degree called a 'Masters of Real Estate Development for Architects' (MRED) at Woodbury University in San Diego after getting jaded in a traditional Masters of Architecture program and applying to the MRED program on a whim.

Maybe I have gotten jaded with recent experiences with long distance investing but this is not an avenue that I will ever explore alone or recommend to anyone.

There are some awesome investors here, great success stories, newbies to keep one from becoming too jaded, advice on everything from tax strategy to tenant relations.

Hi Jade,  Good to hear from you. 

Hi Jade - I'm looking at a similar situation, this one with two units, one occupied and one vacant. 

Not apples to apples but:Police chase claim brings mediationThe injury claim involved a man named Derek Guindon.Guidon was returning home from a weeklong job out of town with a coworker, Jade Thie, on March 1, 2012, when their Midwestern Mechanical van was struck by a Chevy Suburban driven by 19-year-old Kyle Jones.The chase continued for more than two miles along North Cliff Avenue and reached speeds of up to 80 miles an hour.Thie was killed when the Suburban struck the van at Cliff’s intersection with 60th Street North.Guindon was seriously injured.

@Jade Spell haha, thanks that's the plan!

You can't let one bad apple jade you and turn you off to real estate investing or a particular market, First of all, Morris Invest was never a turn key company.

There is zero room to be “sold” on the property and pressuring me doesn’t change the numbers, and also doesn’t fix the obvious poor renovation job that I would need to correct.We have quickly become jaded by agents trying to walk all over us and assuming we don’t know any better.
