Just to pick on point 1 a little. 

During the month of November, 4 units, pretty much all my problem tenants, picked up in the middle of their lease terms and vacated after failing to pay November rent.

I highly recommend attending real estate networking events to meet more people is this space and pick their brain and learn more from their projects and see what is working and what is not.

Looking at possibly picking up "Small and Mighty Real Estate Investor" and " Wealth Without Cash".

I sent the summon via certified mail but the tenant has not pick up the mail.

I introduced them to a mid-sized brokerage in the area (from what I’ve heard, they’re picking up steam) who specialized in finding off-market opportunities that don’t get plastered all over Zillow.

We've made each other some nice profits, so we get to argue over who picks up the check at dinner.  :-) Congrats on those deals  I just have not wanted to take on hundreds of investors.. my one I did we raised half the one you mention ( 7.5 mil)  with only 6 investors so On a very personal level with each..

If you don't have the cash, start saving now, and if you can pick up a cohost client or 2 you will save it quicker than you think.

Just be ready for the ride...it’s not always smooth sailing, but if you play it right, those jitters can turn into some seriously sweet returns.And if you do end up jumping on a short-term rental in Tampa Bay, just pick up the phone and let's dig into it.

Quote from @James Kerson: Well, boys, either you’ll never hear of me, or you can buy me a beer sometime when you do - though if and when you do, I’ll pick up the check.Now that's a deal 🙂👍
