Your tenants and their kids are drinking that water - if you won't drink it neither should they.I'm not trying to be up on a high horse - I didn't know how bad the were until I saw one being repaired... no stop rip all that stuff out.

You don’t get access to your actual blueprint until the very end of the course, after you’ve already forked over $10k and spent two days drinking guru kool-aid.

Stop hanging out with your deadbeat buddies that spend all day drinking, talking sports, and otherwise wasting away.

Do not allow the seller to return for personal belongings after the close without some type of documentation on when they would have everything removed.

Always stay with the prospective tenants so that they don't touch anything that belongs to the current tenant. 

IMO your safety from an investor standpoint comes with building a large portfolio.If you can keep it "under the same roof" even better.Less people to speak with and less drama with logistics and correspondence.The bigger the portfolio, the safer and the better ROI will be long term.Our most unsatisfied investors are the one's that own 1-2 properties and get pissed off with me and my company if they go vacant.Unfortunately, turnkey providers aren't magicians or God and can't wave a magic wand and turn 2 properties into 10 over night lolFolks that own 7-8 or 10+ properties with us aren't bothered if 1 or 2 are vacant, as the others are still performing and cover any losses on those that aren't.Thanks and much success

Have a drink from time to time, talk shop, etc.

I always say, no good deed goes unpunished; meaning “letting” tenants just move a few things in, now makes you liable for their belongings if something were to happen i.e. flood, robbery, fire etc… AND those things can and do happen, then their renters insurance probably doesn’t start until the 1st of September and you said their lease doesn’t start until the 1st of September.Do the right thing, refund back the previous tenant IF the new tenants move in early, and also change the lease date and the new tenants need to pay from that date.

When I started in my 20s and I was able to drink brake fluid and nails for breakfast, I was listening to 3 podcasts a day and analyzing deals from sunrise to sundown.

But that is just with our occupancy rate, posted rules and extra fine for breaking said rules (spilling drinks, food, dirt, etc.).But only you will know how often it needs to be done.
