Thanks for the warm welcomes everyone,Jerry W, I've only gone all in on the first hand once, but I did have the nut flush and there were no pairs on the board so...Jeff S, Eventually I would like to buy and hold, but I see myself rehabbing 10 or 20 properties between buy and holds so that I can buy them cash.I just started working with my first RE agent last week, and I plan on meeting at least 2 more very soon.

I didn't mention that now, in Honolulu, it's never crossed my mind to carry anything except an extra pair of shorts and a beach towel...or that with my hair trigger reflexes I pepper sprayed a cat that scared the %@% out of me once!

While I don't currently use this kind of Trust-LLC pairing I have seriously considered it so I appreciate it.  

Would any of the brokers be able to pair you with an experienced/successful agent as a mentor?

But when you flip a house, the IRS considers the transaction to be no different than retailing any other product (in other words, buying and selling a house is no different than buying and selling a pair of shoes).

Jason, the answer is to grow a pair after studying the FHA and "just do it."  

This will rule tree roots in/out.I have a pair of tenants who have called me three times in the past 5 months they've resided at the house for a "clogged kitchen drain".  

I've caught countless crackheads in my properties over the years - and often times sitting right next to them is a broken lockbox, and in their backpack is a pair of bolt cutters and a hacksaw. 

If they moved out and left only a pair of shoe laces is that a move out?

The matchmaking in Overwatch though is not very good, too many times you win 10 in a row and then lose 10 in a row just based upon who they pair you with.
