We had to adjust our price accordingly, but the location is definitely key here in Chicago like anywhere else.I have to admit we aren't close to double the rent, like @Kevin Morgan, that's super impressive. 

I am embarrassed to admit how much time I have spend on these and I only have “2 doors”But I can say I used both Stessa and Landlord studio a lot so can actually be helpful here.

With that, I’ll be the first to admit that Excel really is not designed for this type of stuff.

This is something I've been mulling over and I admit that I'm kind of curious to know how it all works (regulations, certifications, process) 

One thing with Obie is that their product is non-admitted and they have multiple writing companies. 

You want investors who can help you and telling you where to invest when you are allegedly open to the whole country is impossible.Make a list of places you have a competitive advantage (where you've lived, where your friends and family live, and places you have been that you loved) and then use a list from Dave Meyer or someone else who crunches the data and see where there is overlap.

And 13,000 murderers admitted with no trace of where they've gone.

I admit i had to skim that novel you wrote, but the only functional use for BTC I could see you giving was buying a pizza in Venezuela .. a country with a completely devalued currency and teetering on the brink of failure.
