I’ve spent a few hundred on multiple occasions.

We have used that for short-term money, for 3-6 months to get us through a few projects if we had multiple renovations going on two different occasions.

I have also had to call emergency skilled trades on occasion but even with that cost my returns are better than I could ever get locally.

@Elisa Schunatz I come through on occasion on my way to Cleveland...I saw a property sell for something like $20k...and it looked serviceable...someone bought it and listed it the next week for like $100k....Anyway, what do you see for the long-term for Mansfield? 

Just sayin'.On those rare occasions where they ask about getting money back, I offer them the option of paying the move in fee OR paying a regular deposit equal to one months rent.

We own notes and on occasion have to foreclose, it’s easy to see at auction who knows what they are doing.

That has happened on several occasions as well, and one time we found out they were invited an entire cheer leading team to a 2 bedroom pool cabin, the other it was around 15 - 20 people they were inviting to the same cabin.  

The investor wasn't involved in any way, except to read the financial reports on occasion, and hadn't visited the property for almost 20 years, yet he was part of the lawsuit and had to show up in court.

I have had to write her twice on a few occasions and it still might take a few days or a week for her to respond. 

I used to on occasion attend REI meetings in the Chicagoland area.
