It isn't easy to make things pencil, and I don't see it getting much better over the next 12 months.I have changed my rental strategy to Co-Living (rent by the room).

Accept it "as is" and fulfill the lease.By responding quickly, professionally, and confidently, they realize I am not an easy target and choose to move on.

I proved to them lending me their money was an easy way for them to profit themselves.

This is all easier said than done, but if it we're easy, it wouldn't be rewarding. 

Loopnet, Zillow, etc); easy to do and static.

Sounds like a pretty easy way to get in over my head fast, but at the same time, it seems like an opportunity to pick up a property WAY under market value and there theoretically should still be plenty of meat on the bone.

It is easy to spend thousands of dollars in marketing and have nothing to show for it.

Getting something under contract is as easy as give the seller all the money.

I was very impressed with the communication and the easy process.

Not easy to do with bank financing.
