There is a lot in great information and can easily get distracted.

Treat your cash as a Business and 9/10 times you won't be distracted.

The blessing is on the way, the devil is just trying to distract you and place obstacles in your way.

Do not distract yourself thinking about the commission check you have not made yet or the bills you have pilling up.2.Being a Realtor is not just another sales job you are responsible for helping people make the biggest financial decision of their lives.

I got distracted by the company Justin Phillips represents.

I’ve done both manage properties and have property managers do it and while you might save $100 a month it’s a time suck and distraction.

I don't want you to be distracted with brokering a sale (which is a much bigger deal than a single rental).

Obviously, high-maintenance tenants will distract you from your main business

In other words, go with what you think is the better investment and don't let the tax implications  distract you. 

(Wolf Tip: A buyer has to have something to distract them from the real issues of the house so freshly paint the first room you enter in the house.)The sheep investor, who may have never visited the property until it was in chaos, dumps the property for whatever they can get and chalks it up to a valuable learning lesson.Be the wolf and not the sheep and you can make these types of properties work.
