Periods of boredom peppered with moments of “oh $hit what do I do now??”.

John, I am not too familiar with the official definition of war zones, I have always assumed an area is a war zone if:(1) As I drive through it, all the passengers in the car have a sudden desire to lock their doors...(2) You wish you have a weapon with you, if not, one of those "club wheel locks" you had back in the 80s might help a little...the female passengers finger through their purse to check for their mace or pepper spray.(3) You pray your car doesn't break down, you would never stop to fill your gas tank even if your dash says your gas tank is empty.(4) You check how many bars your cell phone has, you pre-dialed "911" just stop short of pressing "CALL".If some of the above are true I call it a war zone.

But yeah, no caps on the amount of mortgages you hold and as your name / your LLC builds more of a relationship, they said the costs/terms get more favorable.They asked me to bring in past 3 years tax returns of either myself or the LLC(s), and P&L on the properties I own, and to pepper inside of that, I included my business plan, before&after pics of a rehab I did on a unit, & some other things. $10 at staples for a nice portfolio-folder, business card in the corner, and that was all she wrote. 

Thank you Cheryl Pepper and Carrie Giordano. 

Driving for dollars is something I am looking at for my next purchase, building a database of properties I'd purchase and peppering them with marketing materials.

@Cheryl Pepper all sounds great!

At the very least carry pepper spray/mase.Safety should always be a concern and should never be taken lightly. 

You can pepper him with questions.My own experience for short term rentals is very limited but more location relevant than the folks who replied (two properties : one in santa cruz and one in capitola).

I like to pepper in my own subs on each project  to keep the numbers honest.
