The 2 day training was all pressure tactics and they use your emotions to get you to sign up for the expensive program which was held in CA where they present on a huge stage with lights and music with a party atmosphere.  3 days of partying and only enough content to demonstrate some possibilities in RE.

Or worse...they aren't an investor at all...so they just pull numbers out of thin air!

The amount of air fare , hotel , rental car, was all a tax write off and well worth it. 

By the time I got to the house to observe the issue she had it all cleaned up but the funk was still in the air.

I too feel some pressure to take much action soon with the thought of rising rates.

What types of routine or emergency maintenance will it need (water leaks / exterminator / smoke & CO2 detector maintenance / air filters / gutters / outside maintenance / paint / flooring / refresh between tenants, etc.).

So either your bubble is bursting faster than here or you were uniquely under pressure from costs and had to move very quickly.

This is a great little area ,it’s got a lot going for it as mentioned above plus they have started work on the $500 million judicial Centre ,a little east of here towards twin aire and if you’re feeling brave and have good risk tolerance and cash you could look at streets north and south of English near Twin Aire .Good potential there ,it will take time though 

Have you made any major improvements to the home like roof, replaced furnace, air conditioner, etc? 

Might just need a little work on the outside and there is potential for adding central air as it is currently set up with window units (very common in the midwest area I am currently looking).
