@Christopher Baustert   I know it sounds great what your talking about however the reality is collecting said 900 dollar rent over time.... after you do this and have 2 to 3 years then you can see if it was a good deal and if you actually got your rent... that's one tough market for rent at that price point. good renters don't usually want to live were houses are being bought for the price of a nice dinner and a good to great bottle of wine:)

We need to set another dinner date ...

@Minh Le  - Here is the investor that went bankrupt I mentioned during dinner on Tuesday.

It worked out and is all paid off now, but Thanksgiving dinner tasted a little different for me while it was outstanding.  

I want to start with SFR/Small Multi (open).Would any of you seasoned pro’s allow me to buy you lunch/dinner and pick your brain?

Make it look ready for the kids to plop down and someone to cook dinner (even if they aren't going to).

Odours from one unit are transferred to the others ... if your neighbour has kippers or curry for dinner, so do you ;)  Common ductwork also provides a path for fire between the units.  

I sometimes just go to lunch or after dinner and talk to people and hand out cards.

We had dinner once and followed up by couple phone calls.
