I had never been one for weapons, never have gotten into guns as a hobby or really enjoyed shooting.

Yes, even during the festive season, the real estate world doesn’t take a break.Let me share two stories that drive home the importance of acting quickly in this business.The $40k Christmas Miracle: A few Christmas mornings ago, one of our rockstar team members, was enjoying some holiday downtime with his family.

It doesn't have to be expensive either.Eventually there will be something a little extra special for all guests to enjoy.

Consider the family who’ll eventually live there..maybe they’ll appreciate a second-floor deck accessible from a common hallway, where everyone can enjoy it, rather than limiting it to a single bedroom.

I love my job and have enjoyed being a nurse for over 15 years.

Affordable relative to the rest of the US so great place to work remote or just enjoy a reasonable life without being hugely cost burdened Cons: A lot of older than 1980s construction (you 100% can be successful with these properties just have more to check during due diligence) Need to be mindful of market rents in the area and not overspend on renovations where there is not ROI to do so, you can’t usually exceed $2 sf on rental rates and average price per sf is 1.25-1.5 sf (neighborhood, unit type, and finish level specific).KC is not a boom and bust market, you don’t get the high highs or the low lows.

Enjoy those grandkids!

But really enjoy busting the clays.

I hope you’re enjoying the community and learning a lot.

My take on this discussion is this:Anyone can take whatever time and effort they want to argue that it doesn't / can't work (it does / can), or you can just do it and enjoy the benefits.It's not applicable to every situation - stop trying to force this square peg into a round hole.There's no "secrets", no "magic" to it.It's meant for situations where the way it works can help someone achieve their financial goals.
