.: I just got billed $365 by my property manager for replacing a toilet fill valve and supply line.

@Jamie BanksI understand there are multiple parties: 1) displaced insurance policy holder (tenants)  2) ALE 3) The company that supplies all the furniture and install the washer and dryer. 

I've heard of mentees who started cleaning up construction areas on a flip at the end of each work day or picking up supplies at Home Depot and delivering them to the job site.

Many people start out active because they want exposure to real estate and don't know that you can start out passive - you can effectively hire the asset manager and supply capital to the investment.You can have great success as an active or a passive investor - but it is important to understand the difference and to select whichever option matches your skills and resources the best.Good luck!

The other option is a water supply line, but that would typically resulting a steady leak and the damage would occur faster.Really think about what is above that space that could cause the issue.

If there are barriers that limit similar supply and you figure out how to get the housing units online, even better. 

Throw in a few nice touches, like coffee or board games, to wow your guests.Keep extra linens, cleaning supplies, and essentials like toilet paper handy so turnovers are quick and easy.

Quote from @Sanjay Bhagat: 1) Is there a syndicate/s in BP which has gone through all the 4 real estate life cycle (recovery, expansion, hyper-supply, and recession) ?

We are living in the Golden era of wine right now - never before has there been so much good inexpensive wines - but like golf there's just not enough users to demand all the supply. 

I see you have 27 contacts and 14 applications from zillow.Real Estate is about location/location/location, supply and demand.I have never offered $500 dollars off for the first month.
