CC has lot of crime.  

Could you take that money (prepayment, CC) and put it back into the property, and charge more for rent? 

And the CC fees charged by Airbnb and VRBO are atrocious.  

Just link your CC's or bank accounts.

MAKE SURE you know your numbers,,,,,,, I have had people show me FANTASTIC deals, PP 150, rehab, 50k, sell 220, ummm, that's terrible what about CC, CC, realtor, overage on reno, know your numbers.

Thing is "Guru's" are not selling REI knowledge, and those buying the packages are not handing over there CC to buy knowledge or know how, the education component is just the justification.

Assuming they paid the PM, once the lease is coming to an end; have the PM reach out via email and cc you as well as sending notice in the mail asking if they want to renew the lease with yourself. 

We bought our first house in CC in 2012 for $190k and it can now be sold for $600k+. 

You select a list, click a mouse button enter your CC info, and BOOM 10,000 mailers sent. 3000 SMS sent in 3 seconds and THAT gives you remarkably poor results.So you advising him to start verbally announcing to others that you buy houses, honestly seems like a very inefficient way to get organic leads. 

However, you will only be able to cashflow in B-/C+/C locations.
