The fact you brought this up on this board with this situation tells me that you are fairly new to renting by the room.  

Some high and lowlights:- I had one tenant that brought German cockroaches in and then blamed it on me- Same tenant asking if her daughter can visit but failed to mention it was 5 more very noisy people- another tenant having constant loud arguments with his gf- tenant saved some of my stuff when the house flooded due to a pipe burst and another time during a monster rain storm.

I say it is the first deal because it was brought to me by the owner before placing any other deals under contract (which I have done in multiple states) legally, and ethically.

Our partner Carol Tarnowski brought this opportunity to us through her local connections.

That brought me to about a year ago, when my Mom wanted to retire.

A few months back, a fellow broker brought me a pocket listing for a newly built and stabilized 32 unit apartment complex. 

This lead me into Youtube and construction/renovations, which eventually brought real estate and investing onto my radar.

@Matthew Drouin I haven't even dreamed of doing what I'm talking about but research the subject I've been brought to various YouTube video offer case studies & case analysis which would have me to believe deals can be done by lone individuals without any capital of their own being spent.
