I tried to get through them the best I could and schedule tours. 

Now it's one of those "fancy houses" on the art deco tour, but it's all sweat equity.

I've seen a variety of new virtual tour sites popping up.

In other words tour “competition” Are they booked?

If your tour KC and you see where a lot of TKs are located you'll see those areas are not in demand.

For myself, I prefer carpets in bedrooms but I guess there are always rugs.For house #2, I would consider vinyl that looks like wood- I have just toured some high end rentals in the Ann Arbor area and this seems to be the way they are building them and it looks NICE.  

Here is a virtual tour of the property. http://youtu.be/m4gD9UsHn7M

But then in comes Obama who is apparantely attempting to take control of the business who would produce that boom period naturally by the Capitalization process of supply and demand, but this can not happen when the process is controlled by the government, as evidenced by the slower recovery of the European countries from the war periods VS the normal US recovery periods.That being said, I am not sure if we are really out of the war period yet.

There was over 400 people in the room, which I had the incredible opportunity to network with.These people were high-caliber individuals that can help a person (especially a “newbie”) potentially get deals done.Not to mention all the resources available in the room such as: SEC attorneysA title company An insurance agent Real estate brokers A mortgage brokerI’m sure I forgot to mention someone… lol Basically Brad offers an ecosystem that anyone can plug into and leverage if they choose to.It wasn't your typical real estate investing seminar at all.There was great content, food, coffee, etc and Brad's team was highly professional and awesome as well.We went out on a bus tour and actually went into the market to see apartment buildings and discuss actual case studies with the buyers and sellers of these deals.How cool is that?

My tenant is moving out and this document is amazing at weeding out potential waste of time tours, I love it!
