I have a couple who call all the time but those properties are kept in perfect shape and they pay rent on time so I indulge them as most of their request are reasonable.

Are you a gambler or an investor?

Hi @Waneeshe De Hughes if you are interested in discussing the Cleveland market, I would love to indulge!

A friend who is a bookie and gambler once told me lessons aren't cheap. 

I've never been a gambler, but a calculated risk shouldn't be seen as gambling. 

It's fine if you want to indulge a little bit here and there, but you'd better be getting some real enjoyment out of it, because when you upgrade based on personal enjoyment (read: emotion,)there's a good chance you're overspending, which is hurting the property's investment value.When it comes down to your dilemmas, I suggest picking the things that will look the best for the longest amount of time, as they will tend to cost you less over the long haul.

I am one of the leading gamblers in the area.

@Mindy JensenQuitting my job last October 2019 to focus on my growing portfolio was uncharted territory for me, and now we have this health crisis...Fortunately, I am one of those lucky newbie investors who discovered Biggerpockets early on and totally indulged myself listening/reading to seasoned investors talked about how crucial reserves are for rainy days.

If I was a gambler, I would put money on me 😜
