We're all here to learn and support each other.

The support, training, and organization of this group is (so far) exactly what I have been looking for! 

This move from the executive branch again serves to support communities but the reason I support it is primarily it will reduce the pressure in HCOL areas to enact their own versions of rent control. 

I'm eager to network with fellow investors both locally and beyond, and I'm ready to grow my real estate portfolio with the support of the BiggerPockets community.When I’m not delving into real estate, I work as a Cloud Engineer at Lockheed Martin, fully embracing my IT roots.

 If the choice is being able to evict faster or make more money overall, I’ll take the latter.

After 6 years you are now making $500/mo in cashflow, since for the most part your big expenses (mortgage) have stayed constant, but you are earning more money from rental income.

You're going to give very low income People 30 to 60 days to come up with the money Yeah and Where are these people going to get this money- robbing liquor stores.

If I get some money, I consider it a bonus.
