All I can say is .. he is a TREMENDOUS inspirational teacher & trainer.

Some renters become home inspectors and will tear your place apart regarding anything (maybe for a discount).  

Some companies offer discounts on certain products or bulk orders, so it really helps to look around.

Remember not to discount your primary home as an investment.

Pro - You can get significant discounts buying cash, to build in more equity day 1

Then you take that list and see if there is crossover with some of the areas you are interested in and start there because you have a competitive advantage there (boots on the ground or knowledge).One last thing, don't discount your own enjoyment.

Aside from the several Crypto debit cards out there that can connect directly to your Coinbase account (which you can use anywhere that accepts VISA), there are also services like https://purse.io/shop which allow you to purchase ANYTHING on Amazon, with Cryptocurrency, at a 5-33% discount. 

Are you getting a discount on this property?

I haven't been expanding my business with LMHA since the end of 2016 per my posts above so I don't know exactly what changed, but I expect the outsourcing of inspections to private industry + some executive level leadership + replacement of staff with new faces excited to serve the needs of HUD/Landlords/Those In Need has resulted in an agency I will develop more business with.The HCVP will always be a double edged sword for landlords (See Section 8 Bible discussion) but for now I have discovered it is finally worth the effort to participate in the program.I specialize in Toledo's transition neighborhoods, discounted houses on the edge of nicer areas but also on the edge of trash...the Section 8 program allows me to get long-term tenants who are a good business model provided they are consistently managed and visited/inspected for additional "visitors" (relatives and random dogs/cats) and damage/housekeeping which can destroy a home if left unchecked.You need to know the rules, repair and renovate for long-term durability, prepare for inspections thoroughly and keep a team of contractors who will hold those standards...after 8 years we have been through a hundred inspections.

I am a huge fan of DIY cost segs (I have compared with kbkg) feel free to reach out for my friends and family discount code with DIY.
