How to win friends and influence people, or as I like to call it: the art of shutting up, smiling and exuding warmth

Prior to this year I have spent a lot of time banging my head against the wall trying to figure out what to do with my life, and continuously chased a career in something that was primarily influenced by my desire to follow my dads footsteps to make him happy, proud, or impressed with me. 

That said, I understand that equity is important and you may be interested to see what influence it has on returns.

Remember, even with the law, the landlords have the power to influence the tenant's decision. 

Period.Your deal with the seller has zero influence on your lease with your tenants.

But that influence our decision...we just add holding time to the larger projects.

The potential tenant is all but telling you that you have zero influence on her... and 2 cats!

Run different scenarios (best-case, worst-case, most likely) and see if those scenarios influence your decision to move on with this project.For most investors, the first hurdle is making sure the pro-forma numbers are acceptable to a lender.

Just as the pandemic has disproportionately affected communities of color, racial disparities in the ability to afford housing influence families’ vulnerability to evictions now.

With that came their influence and control over the appearance of the town, entry corridors, preservation districts, code restrictions, etc., etc.
