I had a client get burned because of this and it made things awkward. 

Would love to hear from either of you, @Hayden Burns or @Matt Burgess about how you've navigated this.

I wouldn't touch the <100k properties...if you're looking to build long-term wealth.There's a good chance they will burn you.

@Briannan Burns I understand how you feel.

that's how you avoid getting burned like the folks in those other threads i posted. 

Here is an example of what not to do - "I have $1m cash to burn on investment properties.

I have never had issues with a stone countertop, but I have had burn marks on a laminate counter from a tenant setting a hot pot on it without a trivet.With all that said, I would really just go with what the market wants.

We burn through repair people too.

I have also had a house burn down, which ironically enough saved me about 5K as the land had good value but the house was a tear down and it reduced the demo cost I had to pay (no I did not start the fire!)

at $5/lead, do any leads close at $100/lead, do the leads close, it might be worth far more for good leads, than just burning money on cheap leads.4.
