Collections are where the game is won or lost, and without proactive management, even the prettiest property can bleed money. 

It’s been a game changer.

Others noted that the appreciation play could make it worth keeping, I tend to look more heavily on appreciation since real estate investing is more of a long term game.

Real estate is a long term game and a lot of podcasts, reels, etc will show you examples of 25 year olds retiring from their 400 unit section 8 portfolio in Cleveland.

My future game plan is looking to buy a condo with 50% down payment and pay it off within 3 years.

Throw in some washers and dryers in the units—it's a game-changer.

My end game is to show you a path to financial independence, whether that be at 45 yrs old or 70 yr old.  

That's why I'm asking for more opinions from people who have been in the game longer. 

I suggest having smart TVs and let them log into their own accounts, preferably with a guest mode so they auto-log out after a certain number of days.For catering to families, I would concentrate on providing amenities like puzzles and games. 

Negotiating felt like a game of chess—except I was playing against a grandmaster, and my queen was missing.
