You inspire me!

Looking for a little inspiration into my financing portion of my business My situation 25 year old recent college grad investing in the Indianapolis market.

I'm living in Bergen, Norway with my Norwegian wife and children.

I'm not a lawyer, no legal advice, but check your fair housing rules as you could be getting yourself in some hot water raising rent on them simply for asking to allow a family with children.  

I am about to begin working with @Jerry Puckett and your story could not be more inspiring! 

Sounds like a great story and inspiration and what I'm sure a lot of us would love to do.

I have some hope for the third, but he doesn't really inspire confidence either.Does anyone have advice for find a quality investor-friendly real estate agent?

I feel I have to add: Rich Dad Poor Dad is inspirational book, do not use it as a guide to business at all.

So pretty good argument that these conditions would stick under the principle of freedom of contract, regardless of whether the property code would generally lead to a different outcome unless this is deemed contrary to public policy for grown-ups to agree to this (doubt it but maybe tenants are selectively handled under the case law roughly like children in the sense that the average tenant may be deemed by the courts as essentially lacking the capacity to agree to modifications of the security deposit conditions that may disadvantage them).Also, "Abandonment" is a defined term:(3) "Abandonment" occurs when all of the following occur:(a) all occupants have vacated the Property, in Landlord's reasonable judgment;(b) Tenant is in breach of this lease by not timely paying rent; and(c) Landlord has delivered written notice to Tenant, by affixing it to the inside of the main entry door or if the Landlord is prevented from entering the Property by affixing it to the outside of the main entry door, stating that Landlord considers the Property abandoned, and Tenant fails to respond to the affixed notice by the time required in the notice, which will not be less than 2 days from the date the notice is affixed to the main entry door.But as is occasionally the case in this lease, terms are defined but then used in a de-capitalized manner earlier or before, which permits the legalistic argument that the de-capitalized use of the term is broader.

Good to also hear that you are also inspired by your community.
