The principal disadvantage is cost - event at volume levels an electronic (Zwave / Zigbee enabled) deadbolt is going to cost 2 -3 times a traditional keyed deadbolt.

Land and housing is cheap...so I'm figuring on having to do a relatively high volume.

Admittedly, I'm still using old-school methods of organizing actual paper instead of scanning, storing, then shredding the physical product.A flatbed scanner seems like it would be cumbersome (I hate scanning with mine) to do any volume of scanning.

I own my own company.Having agents in your brokerage can be areal thorn in your side.Many never do any kind of volume or if they are in investor getting licensed aren't worried about breaking the rules if it gives them monetary gain.Example they get licensed and make a ton of money.Break some rules and get slapped on the wrist and lose their license and go back to doing deals as usual as an investor.The broker however suffers massive repurcussions from the fall out.Usually in my state if you are a new agent then you do not qualify for the cheap per transaction closing with a broker.Most brokers want you the agent to have experience before giving you a deal.If an agent does 40 deals a year at 300 a transaction that is 12,000 gross to the brokerage before expenses but a huge liability.I would rather mentor an agent on a commercial deal with a split and make much more and know the transaction was performed correctly.

I in no way implied that it was appropriate.Find a local lender via networking groups that can help you be successful in your own market, relying on national lenders will only continue to create heartburn for you in this business.

I'd argue that I can get better pricing for our owners then they could on their own due to volume.

Pay a tenant $50 to watch over it and keep in clean, which doesnt take much effort if it isnt left to get out of control.Edited: thought Id clarify that by "replace", i was referring to replacing old toilets with newer low volume toilets.

In fact many people today don't have a pot to p%ss in so they do social networking all day because they just have TIME in it.Now if you are going to mail TARGETED mailing always out pulls blanket mailing.My father who has been passed away for some time was a supervisor at the main mail center in Atlanta,Ga and was over thousands of mail employees at the distribution hub.I personally do not like postcards.The reason is many postal letter carriers are lazy and get paid by the route so they want to finish as fast as possible.Many put postcards even if paid for with standard licked stamps put inside the junk circulars.Many people throw in the trash without ever seeing your piece.Also different days of the week have different mailing volumes.You want to be on a lower volume day so your piece gets more exposure.I like handwriting the outside of an envelope so it looks like it's from a friend.

LLC first, and later on C-Corp based on volume.
