I get it that everyone wants to come to the party, especially now with prices having risen fairly dramatically, but sometimes I wonder if the Bigger Pockets room is akin to standing on the floor of a casino where a few people have won dramatic sums in some of the "skills" games (poker, blackjack, etc), and everyone else starts running out into the hallways begging for money to drop in the slot machine so they can get theirs too.Anyway, it seems an interesting philosophical question to ponder, and I'm curious what others may think!

Now, the management company wants to fine me for going over our move-in time slot (which is loosely stated in the rules, but not the point).  

Our syndication clients typically have the earliest time slots on our calendar and have excellent books reviewed regularly so we do not have to rush at the last minute.

Buying new appliances is like putting money in a slot machine, you're going to lose.

I purchased five ceiling fans and four faucets for 300 .00top shelf stufflike the hampton bay mercer 52 and price pfister hunter kohler.apparently home depot puts a lot of returns on pallets and auctions them off.some items are fine and intactjust the box is shabby others are missing a piece that can be ordered.like one ceiling actually had a missing slot for the bladeI had to cut a slot with my multi max. but the other fans were fine just a broken globe which could be ordered for about 20.00the fan cost me 20.00 and retails for 169.00 so I think I did ok.the faucets were fine nothing missinggot a price pfister shower body for 30.00check your your flea markets you may be surprised what you come up with.

Hurry, slots are filling up fast!

I also have to imagine that with that many houses, it snowballs and you can start quickly paying off some of the initial mortgages to open up slots?

-Maximize those early mortgage slots: get as many doors as possible for the smallest amount of down payment. 

So when you sell one, or pay one off, you free a slot up.5) Portfolio, it's all a trade-off between interest rate pricing and difficulty to get it.

Everyone told him to stay away from slots but he wouldn't listen.
