@Jennifer Marshall, There are large slabs of both natural and synthetic stone in high end tile shops.

If you hit you’re desired cap rate or ROI at 80% occupancy, anything a voice that is just icing on the cake.

I’ve read several books on taxes, starting corporations and investing in RE, but still has that voice inside of me that’s affecting my confidence.

I've been addicted to Bigger Pockets since last week, I hear Brandon and Davids' voice in my head at night I swear lol. 

My question is - would you invest a bit more up front into more durable synthetic flooring, industrial paint, epoxy-coated showers etc.?

This proves that the threads exist but they're not being found by the actual BP search function.This issue has happened to me countless times and it's time for me to voice my frustration. 

I like this route because I can see their body language, and its easier to gauge the tone of their voice.

@Scott Schultz I plan to set up an e-mail that is something like (citypropertymgmt@email) and then set up a google voice number that is in the local area code so I don't have them think I am the owner.

I spoke with 3-4, and the fact this company really brought passion and enjoyed their work was obvious in our phone call in their tone of voice, level of detail and the owner's personality.

Then I call them.The number is a google voice number that goes straight to voicemail.
