and, reminder - house hacks aren't supposed to 'cash flow.' 

Remind them, fan should run for about 15 minutes additional after they leave bath. 

This reminds me of a line from the movie A League of their Own, said by Tom Hanks character."

It would be wise to remind yourself of that sort of thing frequently during a house hack.

However, this reminds me of all of the people I say no to when renting long term. 

I like to remind myself that I am an investor not an observer.

At least in NJ its always "buyer beware" (the onus is truly on the buyer) so its used as reminder especially in situations where there is a higher risk or more unknowns from the seller.  

It's a slow but steady way to do itHey Caleb,I'm 23, and I think if I play my cards right I could have a few rental properties cash flowing by the time I am 30, but I need to be patient and do my research so I can play my cards right.Thank you for reminding me that patience here is key to ensure I don't jump too hastily while trying to secure the "best" deal I can.  

I make my offers, and if the seller doesn't want what I offer, then it's over.Many times I've had sellers come back to me with a counter, and when I remind them that I don't negotiate, they walk away mad. 

It's good to stub your toe a bit in the beginning it helps remind you that there's always more to learn.
