It brings up the old debate about how much to pay down mortgages and how much to free up for leverage...I don't know that there's one answer to that question....but I'd be interested to see other's take.  

Now that would be a very debatable topic in my mind.That, as well, how it is Brandon could have had an entire hour on the podcast to ask Josh about his investing and I still have no clue whether Josh is still actively investing or not.

Most sellers will offer a counter proposal.I wish you good luck in getting it sold.James, my numbers are correct and they did not even debate my renovations costs and the other costs.

I am looking at buying a 4plex in the next few months and have been debating what to do.I have read that some people form an LLC and some people don't at all.A friend of mine suggested I need to form one for tax purposes and it takes the liability away from my person assets.

Of course, we will bill more out of the deposit if damages and charges exceed that 20%, but making that portion non refundable eliminates a lot of debate and arguing upon move out that we re charging them for a cleaning, etc.

Second is a topic that is commonly discussed/debated on the podcast and on the forums.

There is a need for concern of tenant caliber, especially in many of Mobile's areas, so this is where I'm debating in my head and reading as much as I can on BP.

I am a broker myself, so I have debated on putting a team of RE agents together, but like not having that liability by using other brokers instead.I think the shortest form of contact is best (in person is more effective than calling...calling is more effective than a personalized mailer......personalized mailer is more effective than a general postcard).  

I'm debating whether to self manage or seek another PM co.

Many people will fall into the generalities of the cash flow vs appreciation debate.
