Like I said above, we sacrificed a good bit on the return because we plan to own the unit for a long time and use it occasionally.

We do occasionally act as a reseller for turnkey providers, but that's the exception, not the rule.We do indeed charge an asset management fee which covers among other things:Ongoing property management Payment of all expensesOngoing market intelligenceBi-annual property inspections (i.e. every 6 months)Investment portfolio reviewsInsurance monitoringPerformance reportsEtc.You can see the full scope via this video on our web site (PM me and I'll send you the link).As far as I know, all turnkey providers do charge property management fees which cover only a small subset of the services covered by  our asset management fees.

But, here again, this depends on your individual market, Occasionally, I'll get an agent who says that they only respond to written offers but, usually a tickler phone call or e-mail like the following is sufficient.

I slogged around aimlessly for about 8 years just doing the occasional deal and then I had my "midlife" crisis. 

I may have missed it somewhere, but do you have a paint sprayer you would recommend for someone who does rental turnover and occasional rehab but no large scale painting?

I believe fraudsters should get a taste of their own medicine occasionally.

Occasionally I meet good 'ole boys who are anti-women and I meet some guys from other countries where culturally being a woman means you are assumed submissive, but for the most part the guys love the girls.

If you have a splurge problem I would say don’t do it, but the occasional splurge makes other sacrifices more manageable.

If they make 2,000 per hour and spend 10 hours per month with someone that is 20k a month or 240k a year of lost income with time.Now are there people I ask the occasional question to that I highly respect?

If you do some homework, you can occasionally score big.
