There are a number of strategies out there but one I often hear about doing well is the BRRRR method where you Buy Renovate Rent Refinance and Repeat it creates equity and cash flow for you at the same time while also allowing you to invest in better neighborhoods which have better tenants in which you can safely scale up and expand your portfolio But ultimately the deal is in the numbers so the better you are at analyzing deals the easier it will be for you know when you have found a good deal so practice analyzing as much as you can to sharpen your skills because even as a wholesaler your deal analyzing skills must be up to par because your selling your deals to investors who do this on a regular basis hope this helps

He ended up taking the dishwater’s supply line and letting it leak into the sink.Finally the next day the management company sent the handyman out and the water supply was fixed.A few days later the smells start.Despite repeated calls from the tenant the PM does nothing, no one goes to even look at it.Finally about May 3rd the handyman shows up and they take the floor apart as seen in the photos.Now it gets interesting.The management company says the problem existed before, could not have been caused by the leak.The handyman claims there were only a couple of drips from the water supply line (despite the tenant’s description).I had a mold company come in, they did moisture testing and determined the water goes under the cabinets, under one wall and into the hall and down into the garage below.

Our strategy is to target the standard 3/2 with a two car garage in neighborhoods frequented by military families. 

Tenants frequently don't understand what the problem is or report it accurately.

People will treat you like the person you repeat yourself as.

Or, you just have to replace more frequently... it comes down to preference in my book
