Don't be one of those, step up to the plate and embrace your responsibilities.

You need to embrace the reality that there is no place in business for emotions. 

I have embraced debt to grow, and it has worked, but now I am getting a little jittery as I have surpassed my ability to repay the debts from other income.  

Note that not all lenders have embraced this change. 

"Lazy Agent", "only takes 15 minutes to write an offer", "all the agent does is write an offer, it's nothing special", "I only want my agent to write at least 2 offers per week (that are not going anywhere)"Melind, if you embrace these attitudes; you will have trouble finding a successful, professional agent that knows their way around investment property who is willing to work for you long term.  

I encourage you to embrace that, and I'll be looking out for properties for you. 

@Daniel TrangI would advocate that you embrace your creativity and use it to your advantage.

I don't know that I necessarily embrace the idea of a tenant doing any repairs, including painting.

It great that you have four properties and have done research to explore possible solutions.We are all work in progress.Listening to other successful investor stories, helpsLearning to "embrace" rather than to" avoid" is the way to go in networking, being "successful", real estate investing in general.Sheldon Adelson, billionaire, Las Vegas Sands owner, said "change the status quo....do things the way other people don't do them...then you'll be successful"Doing things the way other people dont do them, makes us contrarian.....but holding steadfast to sound investment criteria as Warren Buffet suggest (calm temperament) gets us through to success

I think there is a some considerable blue ocean in the 15-80 unit space for investors who function as operators and are willing to embrace the pain of being quite active.
