It was going to be painful, and blood and tears were going to be part of it.

One location, one roof, one yard, one parking lot, one mortgage, one tax/electric/water/sewer/garbage bill.Multiple income streams to cover vacancies.

The goal of this is to create an income stream for senior parents, so I want to be very careful. 

@William MallinsonI'm from Southeast Alabama and looking to get into the business as a part time income stream.

You can get list from list source, Prop Stream, etc.  

Find a skiptracing company with flexible pricing plans, now long-term contracts, and excellent customer service to pair with prop stream's list generation.

I'd be pissed if I planned to use it, but I wouldn't raise my blood pressure over it.Was everything else as promised on the listing? 

For this can be said of men in general: that they are ungrateful, fickle, hypocrites and dissemblers, avoiders of dangers, greedy for gain; and while you benefit them, they are entirely yours, offering you their blood, their goods, their life, their children,...when need is far away, but when you actually become needy, they turn away.-- Niccolo MachiavelliAs long as I keep that quote firmly in mind, I find I have very little need to blab about my business and and its profitability outside of Bigger Pockets.

This ain't for people who have beet-juice in their veins instead of blood. 

I still enjoy the bigger brokerage model, but wanted to pay less out of pocket and also explore more streams of revenue - so I joined eXp.
