I got a steel on a Glock 19 because an officer found that P11's took half a second off of draw time.Half a second doesn't sound like much but it could mean survival.

Tenants, "go into Holiday-mode" and start spending disposable income (and racking up their credit cards) on Thanksgiving feasts & trips, Xmas presents & trips, and finally NYE plans.3) Income Tax Refund checks start being received towards the end of February and corresponding, the rental market starts picking up again as tenants payoff their “Holiday Hangovers".4) Spring Fever starts, sometime in April-May, causing both sales & rental markets to start picking up.

In these days and what my life has been I will not be able to repeat what they did and even survive. 

They are proud of what they have survived and they are committed to their children's education. 

Auction buying (real auctions, not sales disguised to look like it’s in auction mode) can be successful for investors who invest in multiple auctioned properties over time so that each property represents a small percentage of the overall portfolio of properties purchased at different auctions.  

I have had to truly suck up my principal which has been hard and one day I might but starting out you know that it is just survival mode so you can afford to grow more and ten years in be able to be more picky if choose to change routes. 

Surviving the first few years is tough, but if you can figure out how to do that, you can have a 3-5% down payment (call it 15-25k) turn into 300-500k of appreciation over a 10-12 year period.

So you need to lock in Low rent at or under $12/sq foot if you want to survive in the coin laundry world.

The day we were set to switch over I was told with their direct API, VRBO no longer will process payment and for our business model I was not setting up 90 plus listing stripe accounts or doing the accounting for that process.

Once I get better at purchasing and adding to my portfolio, I know I will have the knowledge to be able to survive without needing the benefits of cost segregation.
