I will be traveling extensively for work for the next two years so I figured who pay for rent or a mortgage on a place that I use part time when I can gain equity on someone else’s dime and use my salary/ per diem on my continuing goal of FI (saving my money has never been a problem).

Or are you a maniac like me and watching every nickle and dime that's spent?

Its time to take a vacation in Detroit for a week , go see it in person before you spend a dime . 

Good tenants are a dime a dozen.

Plus- I didn’t spend a dime out of my own pocket because investors all wanted in on the action I had!

Stricter gun laws won't cost them a dime.

Since a phone call doesn't even cost a dime anymore, what have you got to lose?

Explain that the property is a piece of junk (be ready to send the creditor pics and a rehab estimate), is the only asset of the unemployed seller (embellish a little) and that this was likely the only chance the creditor would get of ever receiving a dime from the seller.

Even if I have to get the best rehab course money can buy, it will be worth every dime.

I have totaled two cars within two months and didn't have to spend a dime both the time.
