Now again NOT all but enough to get you pretty jaded on it.if you live and work in the area and are totally hands on constantly you can make it work though. but its anything but passive.

I recognize I'm jaded though; the Washington DC market is notoriously horrible for making any cashflow.

jade we need to continue to network cuz you are doing exactly what I did to start out with.

Hello Jade and welcome,It is not common to see me agree with many realtors but Michael above I believe has brought up very good points.

Hey Jade!

Obviously the book could be regarded with a jaded eye as an advertisement for Chris's company, but really, the way I read it was "this is the best way to do things, this is how we do things, if you want to work with other companies, you need to hold them to these best standards and practices."

Jade Richel @Robert LosThank you for your responses.

I was jaded by those experiences and my focus became paying off the mortgage (I felt like I was walking 3 feet off the ground when that finally happened), building up my cash reserves, and funding my 401K and IRA plans.

I get how some landlords get jaded and sound pretty rough here on BP.. i owned a bunch of C and D class and those tenants can where you down and you can lose focus on Grace and civility when they treat you with none of it themselves.. ergo i exited the space.
