The retail value for just one pair of shoes was about $225 at the time and the resale was between $1,000-$1,500.

We have tried to pair each property with the property manager that best fits the needs of that particular property.

You're like a kid buying a $200 pair of Nikes before he's even tried dribbling a basketball.

(Another pair of eyes to tell you it is or isn’t a good deal).

Hi Kyle,Just some terminology: you would be looking for a tenant representation ("tenant rep") broker to help you find space.You can try a service like getdigsy.com, which pairs tenants up with brokers who can help.Or you can call the real estate office of a company like CBRE or NAI Capital and the operator may be able to send your call to a broker who is hungry and hardworking.  

At the same time, the Air BNB market is gaining some momentum, but the biggest limiting factor for expansion for most Air BNB operators is the initial capital investment to acquire a new property.My solution is to pair the two by vetting and working with experienced Air BNB operators who want to expand, but don't want to be relegated to negotiating over and over again with landlords who can't rent their house to an ordinary tenant or don't have the cash/inclination to stick 20% down payments into these properties. 

The only tools needed were a "screwgun" (his words; my cordless drill) and a pair of pliers to held the bolts at times. 

They were two houses with an arv of about $41k-$50k asked $20k for the pair and the repairs I was told may have been about $40k but I beg to differ but I’m also not a contractor so idk.

Had a pair of young tenants who came with a well trained medium sized dog. 

It's always best to get a second pair of eyes.
