The green tea will also provide some calming to you during this stressful time along with some excellent strengthening to your teeth and bones while providing some trace chemicals your body will need.You'll see that as we go into further lengths of time, I'm adding more foods to this that are considered holistic and or eastern health foods.

As far as #3, I've never thought about bludgeoning myself, but I have on occassion wanted to show a tenant what elbows do to teeth.

Carol, just type out what the deal is, otherwise we have to guess and pull teeth for the details.Sounds like a hospital wants to lease for employees, students or families visiting, it could be a very good deal.

Thanks, Karen, I suppose I'm overly sensitive . . . like I said, I don't want to make things worse so I guess I'll just chill and get over it. 

At the risk of getting trolled for promoting my obvious self interest, I suggest that you start with a modest priced home in a lower middle class area, where you can cut your teeth on a smaller risk investment with less cash required  Using a HML (which my company is) will be a relatively small cost in dollars to your deal, while offering you the following benefits:Speed.  

That said, sometimes I feel like I'm pulling teeth to get my staff to take advantage of technology even when I'm setting it up and developing the policies around its use.

The real challenge becomes when you have either a super sensitive tenant to any traces...or a super psychologically sensitive tenant that is quick to flex the tenants rights and demand this and that.  

The downstairs tenant is being too sensitive.....tell then that.

Simply understanding how taxes will impact my investment has increased my returns by 14.2% ([$3,000-2,625]/2,625).Once you understand your "= $0 tax" number, you can run sensitivity analysis to determine exactly how much pre-tax money will increase your returns.

$SLBSo if you're markets where your rentals are worth 2x (or more) what you paid for them since the 2010s bottom, and/or you're in commodities (oil, natgas, coal) sensitive areas, then yeah, probably time to be a bit more conservative when thinking about adding more debt to the balance sheet.
