We've been helping investors from Bigger Pockets buy in Boise where that rule does not necessarily work - that's because we try to educate them that its more important to take action on an pretty good investment property than waiting around for a "home-run" deal. 

Do know of any resources (books, courses, YouTube videos, etc.) to get educated on private money lending?

The goal here is to align with investors and educate them about the benefits of long-term strategies.

EDUCATE YOURSELF - yes, it will take time, but will lead to a selection that better meets your expectations & avoids potentially costly surprises!

First congratulations on taking your real estate education seriously and putting yourself out there by posting on the BP forums.

* Do you provide move in and move out reports * How many pictures do you take of the property prior to tenant moves in and after the tenant moves out* Do you get weekly reports when the property is vacant what prospective tenants are saying about your home* Do you provide monthly newsletters to your tenants* Do you hold investor education classes to help me become a better investor* Do you have single point portfolio based management services?

Hindsight is 20/20, and my education (courtesy of the school of hard knocks called Life) has shaped my approach to real estate investing and how I help others achieve their goals.Since 2021, I’ve been working full-time in real estate, specializing in assisting both local and out-of-state investors in acquiring small multi-family properties and short-term rentals.I would love to meet up with you and further discuss your REI interests and goals.

Without evidence, it's hard to say.First, you should educate all of your tenants to report excessive noise to the police.

But always get educated, numbers don't lie.Thanks again for everyone's input.
