More storage equals happier tenants, and happier tenants equal bigger profits.

I just think ultimately you’ll be happier in the long run.

I'd say we have found most by word of mouth, CL, or vendor truck advertising.

They know they ins and outs of their property, and you bad-mouthing the property isn’t going to going to endear you to the seller.

I own Granite and Pine Properties - a Direct to Seller Marketing company that focuses on giving sellers 3 selling options. https://graniteandpinere.com/My advertising is word of mouth, social media, SEO, mailers and cold callers.

Because we are dependant, for the most part, on word of mouth recommendations it is vital that our recommendations are valid. 

I FOUND THIS DEAL THROUGH WORD OF MOUTH I WAS TELLING DIFFERENT PEOPLE IN MY CIRCLE I WAS READY TO BUY AND LONG BEHOLD A BUDDY OF MINES WHO IS A REALTOR PRESENTED ME THE DEAL AND LET ME MEET THE OWNER WE HAD A GREAT CONVERSATION AS HE TOURED THE PROPERTY WITH ME HE EXPLAINED HE HAD HIGHER OFFERS BUT BECAUSE HE SEE IM A YOUNG GUY DOING THE RIGHT THING HE REALLY WANTED TO SELL IT TO ME AND THE REST IS HISTORY !

Not sure, i guess check in with me in another 8 years :)  But I do know I wouldn’t be happier doing anything else.

Testing the entire BRRRR process to see if it's the right strategy for me long-term.building equity through rehab and build out will be best achieved with a lower priced cash purchase---typically wholesale. or word of mouth. depends on the region though. lots of ways to hunt for good BRRRR candidates, but hunting on the MLS typically wont get you low enough prices to make sense....My brother-in-law, who owns a landscaping company in Lee’s Summit, works with a lot of local builders and has been a huge help...This sounds like a great resource for finding subs that will do the work for you independently. most subs can do other types of work as well.If you’ve worked with trustworthy contractors or subcontractors in the Jackson County/MO area (especially those familiar with investment properties), I’d love your recommendations.

This place has changed my life and I couldn't be happier.
