I have, on some occasions, had my agent add only 3% to the commission line.

This will be my personal private residence, but I am also using the occasion of the full renovation as a test run for my future BRRRR investments.  

I have 4 different chase cards, which I opened on different promotions for different occasions, chase usually likes to give 0% and they send checks.

I have spoken with him in the past on a few occasions.

On one occasion, I actually made it to 'first response' only to be told later that 'oops... a mistake had been made and I wasn't first after all'.All of the properties we purchased were located by me without help from LUINC.

Those occasions are when you want to be properly set up.   

Hello Bigger Pocket,My tenant was paying rent on time initially, After about six months he started paying on the seventh, Rent is due on the fifth, After few months he started paying on the tenth, He only added $50 on one occasion for late payment.

But an orthodox Judeo/Christian legal framework frowns up on it based upon occasions/incidencts like Jesus cleansing the Temple of money lenders (Matthew 21:12, as per Google).

That's a lot of things to go wrong EVERY year in terms of maintenance, vacancies, etc. for you to not make money.Admittedly, I have no idea what Baltimore's like so I may be way off base here, but where I'm at in California, we've definitely taken our lumps on occasion. 

As an OOS investor, on which occasions did you feel the need to fly out to Alabama?
