Expanding definitely can be addicting but I see it as important to know when I have enough.  

I'm also finding that trades are declining smaller priced jobs which take away the opportunity for higher priced ones; in this case, let them know that you have multiple properties so a small job today is worth doing for future business from you.I never thought I would have to offer this but please don't do what a former client of mine did and hire drug addicts to do the work (and that's why they are now a former client); it pays to have the job done right while affiliating yourself with people who don't make you look over your shoulder after they leave. 

I’ve recently got addicted to the podcast and absolutely love it!!

@Tyler Gibson I had the same problem from "podcast addict".

Taking action to be better than I was yesterday has become addicting so my hourly focus is to be intentional with my actions.

I listen to multiple podcasts a week (I’m addicted!)

You know you are addicted to real estate when this is what goes through your head haha

You might get addicted.  

That's just like trying to equate the "median sales price" change, to the value of an individual house.Also, 98% of cocain addicts first had McDonalds fries......a correlation?

I am very familiar with this rule of thumb, however it seems so misguided and arbitrary and takes into account almost nothing other than a base rental assumption.Say you've got a 10 unit building and most tenants are drug addicts and are paying below market rents and the property is old and serious repairs are most likely imminent, you are probably looking at 90% of your rent for expenses.
