Let's dig a bit deeper on this offer and if I can see an example structure with the amounts I am referring to, that would help.

We need to dig deeper and find out what the seller really wants.

This will require a deeper dive than just someone quoting you a rate and terms.

for me personally I have a credentials package that is available to anyone who wants to work with us.. and I encourage them to run a background check..I mean look at what landlords put poor tenants through who are looking to make 700 dollar rents.. and yet they will fork over 100's of thousands and never do any deeper check other than what the guys are promoting..  

I think it's more important to have something to do that is both financially rewarding and emotionally fulfilling, if you can find what that is for you.

Quote from @John Mason: Facebook groups in your area but need to vet a lot Gotcha, I’m in a few FB groups now, I’ll take a deeper look.

Now surround yourself with mentors, go to local meetups, know your numbers and take the plunge when the numbers, not your emotions, are right. 

It makes sense from surface level but I feel like there's some deeper insights I can learn from understanding the value proposition.REI is ****ing sickI have learned so much in the past 24 hours after signing an offer I hope I crack a smile on one reader reflecting the beginning of their journey.Appreciate all and any insight

Passive investors need to dig deeper to cut through this.

If you are okay with someone painting over your original woodwork (even though the lease says they can't) or ruining your marble countertops when they dye their hair (true stories) then you may be emotionally hardened enough to rent your original home that you have lovingly designed.Consider, also that at times you will have to carry two large mortgage payments and decide if you are willing to do that.
