I am a big fan of espresso.

I know that workers in Colorado frequently can't afford to live in the ski areas where they work - they have to commute long distances.

Not a fan of partners especially when not needed.

Someone suggest I go check out Lisa Phillips book on real estate and I noticed she is real big on holding for rental properties but stated she is not a big fan of wholesaling.

I'm not personally a fan of carpet anywhere, but it's not about what I like, it's about what will appeal to the most buyers and get the highest price for the house.

I've been told that deals frequently fall through at the last minute if I don't use the right lender.  

Simple cosmetic updating - LifeProof flooring, paint, ceiling fans in living room and bedrooms, electrical switches/outlets, and updated light fixtures.
