I am a big believer in the 80/20 principle and "trimming the fat" so I really like what you said with "what works vs. what doesn't".

@Kaden Murdock that same arguement isn't exclusive to Real Estate but to the Stock Market and any investing asset. 

Interest only (5%) payments, principle due at my leisure.  

First off, I am an investor in stocks.

@Jeremy Lee, you cannot invest in real estate and stocks in the same LLC.

@Amber Tippett Read up on cash on cash returns – use leverage effectively when buying real estate and your returns will be a lot higher – I would take out a HELOC and buy multiple cash flowing single-family properties instead of buying one property out right with the cash - your return on investment in the long run will be much greater - budget for capex - I personally do not like deals where I'm making less than 400 per month positive cash flow - rental property can make you money 5 ways - equity capture, appreciation, depreciation, cash flow, principle payback and tax advantages

As a matter of principle, I probably would.Your options are: 1.

To be very honest there is inherently not much difference in principle between sending a postcard vs a voicemail if I were to be fair.

The likelihood of you actually going out and being able to apply these principles is basically zero.
