Cheers guys, looking forward to reading some good stuff from all you "lunatics" that broke out of the rat race!

I've been reading and researching like a lunatic, I've started building a buyers list, have a list of vacants and occupied potential properties, have two title/escrow companies, approved contracts.

Otherwise, to them, I am a crazy lunatic and they are the stable one.And yes, the car is very high risk of loosing value and becoming a money drain.

Had a lot of interest in the unit, 50% of which were "normal" prospects, 50% of which were "unqualified" (read: utter lunatics).Definitely will look to put more systems in place for tenant qualifying next time around...Next step is to get a fresh paint job on the exterior (aluminum siding), and hopefully will get a good appraisal when I go to re-fi in a month or two (estimating 170 - 180k ARV). 

Some people may have different opinions on this, but it's obvious the ground for flood risk is unfounded and borderline lunatic. 

I think local rei clubs are the best source of info because you can deal with people who know the local laws and requirements which is a must to be successful fighting lunatic tenants etc.

So, I've got a couple guys on my rehab crew that are certified lunatics.

I have spent the better part of the last year trying to find likeminded individuals in the area to help keep me motivated and to have people around who don’t all think I’m a complete lunatic for investing in real estate, especially from a distance.

The lunatics have taken over and are running the asylum. 

A yard without a fenced-in yard increases the odds that the animal won't have enough exercise and activity to not be a raging lunatic in the house.
