I bounced back and forth between finishing a degree and working at start-ups that all failed.

But I'm getting there.I have learned to use the Chief Architect interior design software to a fairly strong degree, and I have spent a few years now just building random rooms and bouncing them off friends/family.

LA area has been talking a lot about it being in a bubble but I don't agree fully because people are not taking into consideration that this could all just be a strong bounce from the bottom, not much to really panic about that.

Could be great to have someone in a similar situation to bounce ideas off and may even be a way to find partners in the future!

Is there someone in your workplace that is into real estate that you could bounce ideas off of?

That’s the downside of collecting online, credit card, debit card etc... they can reverse funds on you, but they can also bounce a check too.

If you want someone to bounce ideas off, send me a PM.

Would like to keep in touch maybe bounce strategies from time to time like I said market and timeline wise we are in similar positions and looking at the same markets.

Hey gang, I have a duplex in Nassau, I live downstairs and rent upstairs, it's been pretty good until a new couple came in, they been here 2 mths and already missed payment on the 2nd month after nicely talking to guy I found out he had a problem with his employer and his check bounced twice and was thinking about pursuing legal action toward his employer (seems like he has no residency papers, illegal) so gave him the benefit of doubt, 3 weeks later he has given me 3\4 of rent and said he will give me the full amount and the full rent come April, I figure ok, we all have that bad luck so I said ok besides he has given me 3/4 rent so I figured he is trying. the apt has always been a mess, every time I go upstairs I tell them to keep the place clean and yesterday I went up for a bath problem and it looks worst than b4 in fact I saw a cockroach upstairs and told him to best keep things at peace and would like for him and fam to move out asap, because of other small related issues, he said he needed a couple of mths but I said l would give him until next mth but the sooner the better, even offer to give him his dep or part of it back (depending how apt looks when they leave) but I heard some horror stories in Nassau about evictions so can anyone fill me in on Long Island evictions or what best way to pursue this would be appreciated, I hear some landlords can be A-holes and I just don't see why you would b like that especially in NY. 

And in the event the ACH bounces, it automatically reversed the ledger entry.
