it will begin the consistent path on your way towards financial freedom.Plus, I'd rather be my own "CEO and team of executives" on decision's made relating to every property I buy, rather than some other wankers in $5,000 suits only trying to hit analysts projections so that they can get a fat check at the end of year.Thanks for readingYour favorite AussieEngelo

Your letter might get "accidentally" brushed into the garbage can in 10 seconds flat depending on the mood of the person who reads it.You'll catch more flies with honey than vinegar...I would be neutral, calm, and objective -- state the facts only and use "please" a lot.

You can get a new steel tub at home depot for $300 (don't get the fiberglass tubs, they crack under the weight of fat Americans) If you are going to remodel the whole bathroom my vote would just be to put in a new tub. 

Before you hire a PI go to the property and speak to all neighbors for info as well and what I have done before is put the biggest sign I can in the front yard with my phone number on it stating I want to buy your house.

I dunno...I might suggest getting the best job you can in the least expensive place possible to maximize your saving potential and eventually purchasing power.I often think on how I wish I had started this at 20.

I want to offer as much as I can in a single effort (letter or call) in a polished way.Any feedback is welcome, thanks in advance!

Someone mentioned that it may be time to start cutting off the fat and focusing on the ones that are more promising, and coming back to the others later.

So charge a big fat fee for your trouble in advance.
