Quote from @Theresa Harris: Quote from @Kevin Sobilo: Quote from @Theresa Harris: I'm in Canada where refinancing is an expensive endeavor and we generally don't do it (we have to pay out all of the interest remaining on the mortgage). 

In future endeavors, I will add Airbnb immediately upon achieving Premier Host status on Vrbo to avoid similar delays and because it’s a filter.

But keep in mind if your using money you cant afford to get back then buying action property might not be appropriate for your current endeavors and its better to just buy open market were you can do proper due diligence and know you have a build-able site.

It would be great to connect with like-minded individuals and support each other in our real estate endeavors.

I am a newbie in this realm and looking forward to learning all I can in this endeavor of becoming financially independent.

Good luck in your endeavors!

I didn't invent this, it's the metrics of online media today. 

They invented nothing, revolutionized nothing, just marketed themselves to fame. 

I know I want to do this but am suffering from a bit of analysis paralysis trying to figure out if I should jump right in and do small multi-family project or just do a small deal to get my feet wet where if I mess up it wont derail the whole endeavor.

It might seem like a kindness to provide a printer to a traveling professional, but until they invent one that works on every device, every time; that doesn't need paper at two in the morning; and has cheap toner that refills itself, we will pass on that amenity.I am sure there are other examples for all 4 quadrants, but like @Allen Duan wrote the important thing is to look at amentities through the lens of the end user (with an eye towards the "competition").
