Thank you Eric Drum!

It also depends on how old the property is.........It also depends on what your PM is doing to drum up business.....If you have a PM that "encourages" tenants to put in maintenance requests....the tenants will do it, because the tenant doesn't pay for those requests. 

You can also get an abrasive cleaning stick that will help you get a bit more life out of each belt, but that really only comes into its own at the finer grits, like 80 and 100-grit.This is how I typically avoid renting drum sanders for mid-sized surface sanding projects.

@Danny RandazzoLots of “up start” conferences try to use perceived exclusivity and “opportunities” as a “speaker”/participant to drum up interest and attendance while they develop a reputation and track record as an event .

@Joi WashingtonOff market.... your gonna have to drum up that deal!

That's not my bag though.So now that's out of the way, and I'm done counting my money, (or what's left of it since I'm currently stretched as thin as a drum while I await three cash out refi's), let's talk about why I wouldn't touch that Warren house.First, it's a VERY small 3/1... like under 900 sq ft small.

Additionally, I've been told simple picket signs/flags lining the property highlighting new ownership and renovations can drum up conversation.

Every time I do this I drum up some kind of business or lead.

@Patric Sepulveda A great way to help drum up business is to connect with a lender you like. 

I have been a landlord for more than 3 years and when I started to watch and listen to Brandon, it motivated me to buy 3 more properties this year, and I am still going like the rabbit hitting the drum with the Energizer battery!
