You may not scale as quickly but if you have no money or no time you do not really have a choice and if you are the equal split partnership sometimes it can be nice to have someone else to bounce ideas off of when the road inevitably gets tough. 

and of course i am assuming the terms are lender dependant. i guess the question i should be asking is am i always going to be bouncing from baloon to baloon?

I'm happy to be someone to bounce ideas off of too if you need it. even if it's from a distance. 

@Slim Geransar hey I am getting ready to the do same thing I am from bronx ny but born in Manhattan let's connect and talk bounce ideas on how to navigate investing out of state will pm u with my cell #

I was bouncing back and forth between the kitchen and one of the bathrooms as paint dried/tile set.

You may be bouncing around to collect information so it feels natural and not an interrogation. # of beds/baths, square feet, garage, any outbuildings, land size, ask about improvements, ask about deferred maintenance, etc.You also need to collect information about seller: name, phone, email, best method of contacting them, anyone else listed on the deed that you need to know about, and their motivation for selling.Make a list of what you need to collect, then practice with some others and find ways to make it sound natural and not just filling out a form.

These are the same mistakes in reading human beings that lead them to post about "my tenant moved in and he wrote a personal check for the security deposit and it bounced now I can't get him out" or "my tenant's 'boy friend' wants to move in to the unit, I told him I needed to have him fill out an application and do a credit and back ground check, he said because he is only going to stay there short-term for a few months while he is in the process of buying a house, and doesn't want me to pull his credit because it will make his credit score go down, he seemed like a nice guy, but now he (fill in the blank of the catastrophe)...." 

Are you going to capture the visitor's attention or are they going to bounce right off?

Eventually the values bounced back.

Have you bounced this idea across your insurance company yet?
