I agree 100% that most investors spend too much time on the fun stuff, looking at 'deals', building models, picking paint colors and don't spend enough time in self reflection to understand what the are and aren't good at. 

Hi @Lena Truong I've bought assets from AHP and Jorge Newberry is the principal and passes the integrity test with flying colors.

You can do this simply by changing your bedding colors and the colors of accent items like throw pillows and towels. 

You can get a color match for the paint there and maybe get away with painting only that small wall.It's hard to tell from the pics if there is a need for whole house painting.

Forming little groups in the background to down vote certain individuals comments based on skin color, or religion, or perceived political leanings seems like something we could all do without on this forum.

I'm sure in markets that differ from mine that people will have very different experiences.I'm in a VERY blue color cash-flowing market.

You can have a formula to pull the individual property tab income to this master tab.I have my ROTH IRA owned properties with a different colored tab and they are in a separate section on my master tab.

Static sign behind your house or lighted until 10pm might be ok, but you might not want one of the newer LED signs that changes ads and colors 24hrs a day.4.I think I would want a monthly lease, not perpetual. 

If you are trying to maximize space you may want to consider convertible sofas and/or one that has a pull out option.As far as material my preference would be a darker neutral color microfiber that would be easier to clean.Possibly most important is looking for one that is commercial grade for durability.

If we can't buy 2nds, we just buy more low balance 1sts.There are data service providers, such as DistressedPro.com that can give you some more color on what product is currently in the marketplace (and who owns it).Best,Dave
