Facebook and cold calling buyers in your area.

However, my time no longer allows me to use this regularly making it impossible to get 7 touches.The majority of my previous deals came from cold calling. 

I cold call every day to find off-market deals.

I just spoke to my very first Cold Call looking for my first duplex to HouseHack and got my first "No!"

I hope you saved your nuts the last few years because it's going to be a cold winter.

My landlord would fly to Florida from the months of November to March to avoid the cold. 

If you want to really gain experience relevant in becoming a realtor start Cold Calling for one.

Biggest pro for me is environment, I want to be around people cold calling, hustling, and finding deals all day 

I've seen them come in for over $1,000--if it makes you struggle, ask for a payment plan.Or you cold try to push it down on the renters, but the defect seems to me to be on your pipe, and beyond the control of the renters.If it were leaking inside the house and they were just (sitting around for a month watching the Price is Right on TV and drinking beer) ignoring it, I'd (try to) pass it on to them.I say try to because they may not be able to pay it--(for instance, 60% of the renters in California have income way below the Federal Poverty Guidelines). 

I don’t mind window units in the actual windows but I know exactly what you are talking about because plenty of landlords in Pittsburgh did this arrangement.It looks awful and when it gets cold they get drafty.
