I've read over 30 books and the best lessons learned cam first hand.Call me or email me if you like I love the business though I'm concentrating more on commercial deals these days I still do the residentials to pay monthly expenses.

I already have a BA in business admin with a concentration in entrepreneurial management.

Once I do in the next 3-4 years, I'll sell my current business and concentrate on managing the multifamily business.

I have been in contact with a couple of BP'ers(Nick J. and Justin S.) who live in the area of where I am concentrating my efforts.

I would love to concentrate all my real estate investing in the northern Atlanta metro area from this point forward.

The areas we are concentrating in right now are Orlando, Atlanta and Phoenix, but we are looking to expand to other markets over the next several months.

Personally, I like to concentrate on good structurally sound houses that will cashflow.

You can spot the war zones pretty easily, just search using the mapping feature for concentrations of houses for sale under 10-15k (in midwest areas such as we're in).

I got married recently, on October 29, and hopefully will be moving towards concentrating full time on my real estate career within the next 4-6 months.

Okay so I move a new tenant into a unit.They call the next day and say the tubs are not draining well.We go and inspect and the tubs are slow draining.We put drain-o and others down the line and it does nothing.Then we call our plumber and he snakes the line.The problem is someone put in a T line from the 2 tubs instead of a Y line so the line is clear from tub to tub but the snake cannot turn a corner to go further into the pipe.So the plumber suggest we use CLOBBER from a specialty store which is straight concentrated sulfuric acid.This does not clear the line.Plumber comes out and then installs a Y line fixing the T-line.Puts a camera down the line from the kitchen which is downstairs and the bath plumbing is in the ceiling.He sees a drink cap and what looks like a bottle but can't tell.We are thinking from a roof put on years ago a roofer dropped a drink down the plumbing vent and it is stuck.So the plumber opens up the wall above the kitchen sink and VOILA the problem is found!
