@Drew Sygit The verbiage in our management agreement is as follows: make, contract, and/or supervise repairs, alterations, and/or decorations to Property; to purchase supplies and pay billstherefore; Broker agrees to secure the prior approval of Owner for all expenditures estimated to be in excess of $500.00 forany one item, except monthly or recurring operating expenses and/or emergency repairs in excess of the maximum, if inthe opinion of the Broker such repairs are necessary to protect the property from damage or to maintain services to thetenants as called for in their leases; in the event that Owner is unreachable after multiple contact attempts for more thanforty-eight (48) hours to approve a repair in excess of the above amount, Broker shall be considered authorized to makesuch repair.I've been contacted about high ticket items in the past but these "make readys" are done without approval. 

You can also read our current and past issues on our website or attend our in-person events around the nation to meet us in person. 

Also planning to get into REIA Club events in the Dallas area.

——————————————————————————————————From the previous month, below are some real estate updates, data points, and current events!

Marcus, the event was great and I truly appreciated your market review and forecast.

I'd also recommend diving into books, podcasts, and even attending real estate events to start learning more.Here:Learn the Basics: Study property types, financing, and market trends.Network: Attend events, connect with pros, and build relationships.Find a Mentor: Seek guidance from someone experienced in commercial real estate.Start Small: Look at smaller deals or partnerships to get your feet wet.Take Action: Once ready, start evaluating deals and making offers.

For example, properties became available at the onset of COVID, during a snowstorm, a hurricane, a major holiday, or after some other unexpected event.

Looking ahead to retirement for both of us, we would like to make a solid investment with few worries about weather events.

Go to GET STARTED > EVENTS AND MEETUPS at the top of your screen.

It has a free version and in the event you'd like to upgrade once you obtain more properties, the monthly cost is extremely reasonable.
