@Jonathan GreeneAgree 100%. be transparent and if good news great - bad news - still share it with investors - realize they are making life choices based on what they may be telling you as an example of someone has $100k investment and you fear it’s going to go to foreclosure - well maybe they would not spend $10k on that vacation or buy a new home knowing they are getting wiped outUnfortunately there is a group of guru syndicators who are great marketers / sales which some I have personally spoken with and they are so full of it and just like to hear their voice their ego gets in the way.

I’m looking for a company with voice recognition to respond to simple questions. 

The initial entry only effects the balance sheet and keeps the equation assets = liabilities + equity in balance.

Unless there is so many nail holes that it effects the aesthetics of the wall, it is normal wear and tear.

Plus we have the "lock-in" effect going on now where people that would normally move are locked in to super low interest rates.

Finding cash flow in Denver is going to be very hard without making a massive down payment or house hacking, which would be GREAT if you can do that effectively. 

Believe me, even small changes can have a huge effect on how much money we get.In the real estate investment business, it's important to build ties with brokers, lenders, and direct contacts.

Additionally, I'd appreciate any tips on balancing cost-effectiveness with durability.

Unfortunately, that is not going to be very effective.
