Don't make it so complicated that you have to spend more time learning the software than it's actually saving you.

If when you were renting the place in the beginning if a family of 5 came to rent it vs a family of 3, would you have charged them more money because they were 5 people?

You can refer 3 of your friends but try to call me out for reaching out to Jason directly because I actually work for a cost seg firm?

You want to buy more rentals, so why not use the money to get started on that sooner rather than later? 

I had quite a bit of money saved up from years of traveling and not really paying any rent as I was staying in hotels and accommodations paid for by my tours.

As the PM you are stuck between the owner and the tenant and both have conflicting ideas on how money should be spent (or not spent).

Actually, was able to get it by calling two different State Farms offices.   

I do have an empty lot next to my current SFH , doing nothing (but costing me money to mow :)) my thought was to build a detached guest cottage to serve as an overflow for guests or it could also serve as a seasonal / monthly rental.

I've actually driven by a few of these on daily commutes.

if the building cashflows really well ... it wouldn't be a big deal to use a loan for dp right...at 10% down for lower income housing I don't have much money and I think that this is the best way to get multi-family management experience to meet hud loan requirements in the future which Have the lowest Down payment options.Am I overthinking it?
