If it is a coin toss I always keep the money in cash.

On the other side of the coin, many investors think it would be foolish to not borrow as much as you can while locking in a historically low interest rate.

I don't go down that path because I know where it tends to end up ... showing the other side of the coin to newbies who are willing to consider an alternate view that they may not prefer to hear is the value I add.

All they have to get is 526 followers each month to take their mentorship and they are making 10mil a month alone, that's alot of coin for very little info.  

Let's see here....1) A few weeks prior to tenant move-out I send them a cleaning checklist as well as the two pages they signed listing damage and cleaning fees2) I use the same paint colors in all my properties.3) My Clean Magic Erasers are amazing and will remove wall scuffs and random stains. 4) When buying larger items I utilize the Lowe's 10% off trick (spending .99 on eBay to buy a Lowe's 10% off digital coupon and using the code online or in store - this hack has literally saved me thousands).5) At my multi-family properties I include various items near my coin-op washer and dryer: a laundry  table for folding, a roll of paper towels and a bottle of cleaner so the machines can be wiped off; I also include some laundry-related items such as stain remover, starch spray, etc (I buy it from Dollar Tree and it lasts a while - I think the tenants appreciate the gesture). 6) At the Dollar Tree they have a toilet cleaning gel product called Lime-A-Way.

@ Dominic Bouchard, the service provided is that they put coin-operated washers & dryers in my laundry room, they make sure the equipment is functional and collect the coins, and split the collected revenue with me.  

Put in coin operated machines. 

On the other side of the coin, you can provide a much-needed service, just like any other business - that is not a charity.  

what you should about Baltimore you get what you pay for.If you are going to look at houses lower than 100K, it can be a huge loss or decent gain, it can be a coin toss.Anything over 150K or more, you are getting closer to safer areas and lower the risk and lower the cash flow.You decide what you want basically.When people says bad stuff, they all invest in areas where you would not get out of their car, get spend close to nothing on houses and complain about it. then go spen 5 times more and suddenly decide that is better.I am a baltimre investor/agent, I am pretty happy and dont have one house in the hood.
