I personally walked and researched every property prior to investing to understand what I was buying, what could be done to add value and what I should expect in cash flow and appreciation.Learning what makes a good investment for you is absolutely necessary. 

I personally would recommend it but it isnt the best run 3 day. 

Was that person me or another person as that sounds like something I have been telling people? 

Data point: we have a long-term rental in a popular STR neighborhood listed through Zillow right now.Every person who writes asking to do some sort of arbitrage is blocked by the Zillow platform.I don't even have to say "no thank you anymore."  

It should be from someone who uses that person.

I have two phones, one for business and one for personal.

He really is a proactive person.

Although the journey has been worth it, I've sacrificed quite a bit from a personal lifestyle perspective, relationships, etc.

Are you looking to just put the money to work or looking to be personally involved in getting, rehabbing, and dispo of deals?
