I am meeting with owner this weekend to fill out some paper work/give him the payment we agreed upon.

The CD just puts all the numbers on paper.

@Douglas Rice I agree with everyone else that I have been using Zillow and it posts to others like realtor.com and gives you the code to add to craigslist, but I was talking with a friend that has rentals the other day and he told me that he decided to in the new paper a few months back and has found his best tenants through the newspaper ad.

I hold my investment properties within an LLC, which on paper, after all deductions, should take a loss each year (or close to it). 

I have bought a lot of smaller multi-family and I will quite often put it under contract before I go look at it because I'm familiar with all of the product available in my area and know what I'm looking for.I don't do that on larger multi-family but I have a good idea of what I'm looking for so I would not go look at it unless it met everything I was looking for on paper and that only happens very rarely.So let me challenge you a bit.

Those rentals are very attractive on paper but are also difficult to manage and I feel they are a recipe for failure for a new landlord.4.

Most would hold out till the eviction paper was issued then maybe leave.

get a second job and stack cash, and cut everything non essential out of your lifestyle,  I notice the harder I work the luckier I get, REI is not easy and its not get rich quick, actually its holly crap how can i feel this poor but have so much on paper?

I'm a senior at UW-Madison working on starting up the last research paper I will probably ever write.

One of the advantages to investing in real estate long term is the paper deductions you get.
