Quote from @Nicholas Dillon: Hey guys,I own 2 LTR properties, plus my primary home that I rent out half of the year while I live in Indonesia with my wife, who is Indonesian.  

I'm imagining something more like add a wall, turn a bedroom into a kitchen-living on one side and a formal dining room into a bedroom on the other side, maybe add a half bath in each unit.

Glad it's working for you I slowed down on RE for about the past year and a half S&P 500 is up 27% YTD, NASDAQ 100 up 32% 

I was going on vacation, so I arranged for my partner to give him half the second payment for supplies only. 

Solo 401K, pull personal loan out at 50K or half the balance of the account, whichever is less.

It shows you are serious and willing to go the extra miles to make it work.

If so, then find out if you are close to any hospitals (within 15-20 miles). 

I have 250 agents in my market and half of them have only sold 1-2 properties.TIP: look for a property manager first.

Given the permitting timeline, I will offer to purchase some of the furniture and redecorate the rest (so half and half to reduce some furniture building time).

(Unfortunately, the investor fell for this gimmick and did NOT get their own 3rd party inspections, appraisals or even visit the properties they were buying, against our best efforts to encourage proper due diligence and follow our check list for their own protection.)So now some people are stuck with properties worth half what they paid (not all RWN members), with no renovation done, and constant repairs and vacancies.
