Don't get me wrong, there are still problems to tackle.

I was thinking about tackling something that I hadn't done before (tankless water heater) and went on YouTube and found a goldmine of how to videos.

Being there was just so much easier, as I could tackle issues before they were bigger problems and learn what I need to pay attention to.2.) 

Brad Hayden made a good list of the initial items you want to tackle -- the goal here is while there may be some sunk cost, you want to find out if your assumptions will pencil out.

That’s what makes real estate so great, the fact you can tackle in many different directions.

Now looking for properties, I just take in to account the HELOC payment also so as long as the cashflow coming in covers both the house payments, expenses and AT LEAST the HELOC interest, I can tackle the principal then refi later when things go back and just throw the difference saved back into the HELOC principal as well.

I just need to learn how to tackle this intelligently so I make fewer mistakes.

I found it hard to get certain ppl to tackle jobs.

I don't know what the latest is, but because the biggest cities to tackle it so far -- Denver, Aurora and Boulder -- all have primary residence rules, you can bet Longmont would consider something similar. 

If not, I'll just try to tackle this 6 unit and then shop around with some lenders.
