it is not user friendly at all.

Real estate is a long term game once you understand that it gets easier my friend .

The thing that got me considering this model and actually scaling it was a call I got from a friend.

Borrowed money from friends and family to pay cash for the property as the bank would not finance it until it had been remodeled, made livable, and brought up to code.

Self-proclaimed Section 8 guru's online claim to do the latter and then find Property Managers after they purchase the property in whatever state, but I don't know how real that is.I'm a big believer in purchasing in a landlord friendly state.

I rented out the additional bedrooms to friends and family, charging them well below market, and sold when it was time for my wife and I to start our own adventures.

We've been very friendly and respectful to each other, and just don't want to ruin that kind of tenant-landlord relationship.

They are willing to trade one high-equity property in a tenant-friendly market like San Francisco for a more landlord-friendly growth market like Austin.

My most trusted and often used contractor who lives in the area, and is practically a friend is the emergency contact.   

Hi, my friend!
