Meaning you need to know what materials are hardened enough for a rental but are also cost effective.

@Britney RossIf you're looking to scale a portfolio and you've never done it, and want to do it as efficient and as cost effective as possible, find someone who's done it and learn their systems and processes.We were stuck at 500 units, went and hired coaches, learned about core values, cadences of accountability, and other processes that we implemented to grow to over 2,000 units.What I knew at 50 units was not going to get me to 500 and what I knew at 500 was not going to get me to 1000.A lot of work is involved to implement, but the cost is well worth it.Gino

I am correct to understand that renting out rooms in my house doesn't effect my eligibility for the exclusion?

The reasons I went with REIPro was because it’s features rich, and yet the most cost effective.

I don't think the park has any effect on appreciation and certainly not 10 miles away. 

HUD "secrets" change often including another one in the last couple of months to include a softening of the firm line on the 87-88% on aged inventory that had been in effect since HUD went to one AM(there doesnt seem to be a firm number in my region but their is a number less than 87%)The "under previous asset managers it was, but isn't anymore" ABSOLUTELY APPLIES. 

Now that Podio has made it so that you have to effectively pay $120 per month for Globiflow, what are people doing to automate their marketing?

Both helpful and effective when getting started! 

Alternatively, you may need to factor in a larger repair budget to address the vacancy issue, effectively eliminating the risk. 

Let me know what you guys think or what most people are doing/not doing Age and location of trees have a big effect on the sewer line.
