Thanks everyone, I really appreciate the warm invitation and will be reading those recommendations.

Let me start by saying this is not a post that is going to give you magic formulas or wow your market and potential renters into renting from you.This post will be a seed a prompter, if you will, to get you thinking about things that are abstract, yet will still have a major impact on how fast you get rented.Buyer behavior the bum and a meal syndromeIf you were a bum had no money at allyou could ask a thousand people for a meal and you may get a few mcdonalds burgers for your trouble.On the other hand, if you were Donald trump you probably would get many invites to some real spreads. why?

Although not typically a fan of painted brick, We have painted the bricks on numerous houses, I can email you a couple examples if interested.You can also use a stone veneer, if you want to make some impact, we do this frequently with fireplaces.

I've done this with sellers/buyers in numerous other states.

If you have some cash on hand you want to put somewhere to get it working for you, this could be a good opportunity (depending on numerous other risk factors).

Our main focus will be investing in multi-family/condo/townhouse properties branching into SFRs and eventually land development.My father-in-law currently owns 90 properties and is about to start developing land and building numerous units.

We changed the date to give us some time to network and invite as many BP members as we can!

INVITE ME  it's fun (but then I'm a Monopoly fan as well)

We have done numerous, farmhouse or doggie bathroom, a few years ago.I always got rid of or moved the utility basin and installed a small vanity and mirror, Enclosed it with walls and a door, painted the floors and it always passed as a bathroom, for mls listings and to be honest, never paid attention to the apprasials if they counted it as a second bath, assumed they did, the houses always appraised.

:)Meeting, after the meeting. . . .6 of the 7 people in this photo are BP members, the 7th should be by now after my invite!
