I found some people would have problems renting elsewhere, do all kinds of things to claim they were first and should get the apartment because of it.One example I cited is I got someone calling me at 7:00AM Saturday morning when I put in a weekend ad claiming he must be the first.

Good Morning Wyatt,I live in the SoCal area myself and have already looked at markets out of state and providers in those areas.

Morning Everyone, Well, I guess you can sort of count the rent I've been getting from my roommates while house hacking over the past 8 months, but this morning is my 26th birthday and I woke up to the Chase Quickpay rent payment from my tenant at my first true investment property. 

As of this morning there is magically a Uhaul truck in the driveway.  

Good Saturday morning to everyone...I have been listening to the podcast and lurking around the site for a few months now...I am an Army veteran, my wife is currently in the Navy..I have my BS in Accounting and am working towards becoming a CPA...Real estate has always be of interest to me, however coming from a family that has never owned anything, I didn't know where to begin...BP has opened my eyes to the fact being that real estate investing is possible for us...I am a sponge right now wanting to learn any and everything...My schedule is flexible, therefore if any investors or anyone in the box would like to have a person that can do some running around for you here and there in the North San Diego County area, hit me up 

I apologize if this isn't worded so well, I'm pretty groggy this morning.  

Good morning, all!

Good Morning Everyone, I am beginning a direct mail campaign to bring in more leads.

If you've got multiple properties, do this full time, manage your own and generally run it like a business (ie, you take deductions for meals, mileage, phone, internet, etc.... beyond just "investment" expenses), then I'd argue that you're running it as a business and should 1099.But really, when in doubt, 1099. 

Good Morning,About to purchase my first flip.
