The female tenant just told me today that she registered their current dog and the new puppy as emotional support animals. 

It's constant work trying to keep up with everything, but it's mentally and emotionally draining.  

This is why in writing takes the emotion and BS out of things when paperwork is constructed properly.As mentioned elsewhere if the foreclosure notices and process were not handled properly a judge can deem the foreclosure and sale process NULL and VOID.

One more tip – people remember stories that trigger their emotions.

What most forget about JV's due to their focus on raising capital, flexibility, or broadening your investment horizon is that it is a partnership and if you think Real Estate investing my be stressful at times throw a few inexperienced partners in along with money they are looking at and having to work together as well as manage emotions and you have a perfect storm.The point I am trying to make is the successful JV's I see are comprised of experienced investors who have opened their financials to each other, as well as background checks or any other verification of finances and more importantly character to have a comfort level with one another.

Make an analytical decision - not an emotional one.

thank you, i am excited and nervous and about 20 other emotions!

Obviously the numbers have to work and we need to make money, but there's definitely an emotional "save rural america" motivation behind everything.

This will/should come down to the numbers and remove any and all emotions from the equation.

As you are gaining more benefits than just the cash flow.If you are going to purchase a new primary, it will be more emotional and complex as you aren't going to generate a return with the capital, other than appreciation.
