I can remember first opening my first business and working for an entire year EVERY SINGLE DAY except Christmas, and New Years.  

@James Wise@Shane Kelly@Aj Parikh@Carla KordabThanks,Amir Hey Amir thanks for mentioning, Up until christmas we can still fill it up, families kind of drop after school starts, fewer families move but there’s still people interested in renting in Parma especially. 

@Art Maydan  Thats a TRUE story, He took a week off over christmas/new years and was laid off on Jan 2nd. 

@Emily Fraser,A credit score is a tool, not a trophy.

the point here is that this contractor asked me if I did not mind if they took off the week between Christmas and New years for their employees who work in pouring rain sleet snow you name it..

Now all I have to do is find a new tenant 60 days before Christmas......  

My name is Jackie - I am a born and raised Cleveland sports fan, especially the Cavs... and thank God we finally got a championship trophy. :)I am new to investing, though I have held a rental property for the last several years.

I would like to add that there are those that view REI as a hobby, a side hustle, trophy collections, while others look to it for financial freedom, wealth building, and as a lifestyle.

Also on holidays...I had a 6 AM Christmas Day call of flooding in an office building, found about 2 inches of water on the floor where the chiller pipe broke.

A dead christmas tree got pushed around for six months before it finally ended up in MY yard waste (I didn't complain because I was tired of seeing it too) for example.Prices are high right now and we are probably going to see a recession in the next couple years.
