I hire my 2 boys and their buddys for washing, floor protecting and first coat rolling.

Finding a specialty is a great idea that your buddy suggested as it would help you focus and develop your expertise in a certain field.Make connections with real estate experts like lenders, contractors, and real estate brokers.

@Don Konipol dang buddy...that is the most negative view I've ever heard. 

You should connect with my buddy @Doug Spence who is active duty Air Force out in San Diego

My buddies experience with Chinese build quality has been horrible.

@Justin JohnsonRelax buddy this is normal and to be honest it was a blessing that the tenant moved out instead of you have to chase them out later on.

Hi @Robert Johnson - a buddy of mine is a good real estate coach and has a bunch of STRs.

I personally love Brussel sprouts and most types of fish, and might have my rock band buddies run some practice sessions in the living room in the middle of the night too.. lolIn all seriousness, thanks for the advice everybody, she claims she’ll be leaving by Thursday but I’m ready to lawyer up to get her gone if need be.

The guy is retired Military Police, Sergeant Major, it's like the highest rank for an enlisted (not commissioned Officer), my buddy immediately almost collapsed, citing that when he was in the military, guys like this were huge aholes and liked to bully people around them.

Additionally, one of my good buddies @Doug Spence is active duty air force and mentors new investors.
