Just your hard work and intelligence in following these steps wisely. 

Some books I would recommend - What Every Real Estate Investor Needs to Know About Cash Flow, Think and Grow Rich, and The Intelligent Investor.

I know this wouldn't be considered intelligent, but how many people have had experience with instead of paying certain bills on time, using that money to invest into/build their wholesaling business while their in the beginner stage of actually rolling out the marketing and building relationships at meetups, etc.

With supply chains being cut left and right all over the world, escalating quarantines, reasonably intelligent tradesmen who have better things to do than run out to job sites all day and expose themselves to infection or any sort of injury that involves going to the disease-ridden hospitals.But you honestly think that in this deal, you should worry more about housing value changes, bank rates, and what your hypothetical new tenants will be able to afford.It boggles the mind.

Hi Reggie,Maybe the Salon business just isn't for you.You could always call a Business Broker and ask how much you could get for it if you sell it (and what a good going market lease rate would be for a salon of that business amount).If the correct person owned it, maybe it could make a lot of money and be a good tenant.Also, it would be intelligent to run the idea by your Tax CPA (who knows your books for the Salon and for the rental part of the business) first to see what the tax impact would be of a sale like this.Maybe for the right person--who YOU THINK could make a success out of it--(such an already established successful salon owner with other locations), an OWC might sweeten the deal.And if you sell it, be sure to tip the girls good when you go in for your haircut--because you're no longer the boss--you would just be a rich landlord customer.Good Luck!
