I am aware of the controversy around it, but that doesn't change the fact that is has inspired millions to make a positive change in their lives.Dave Ramsay may have some good advice for some...but not for me...and he is the poor dad.

@Thomas MidgetteThere's some letter templates in the file place if you need some inspiration.

Hi STR investors,  I'm genuinely curious/interested to know if it's typical to charge your guests a cleaning fee AND also ask them to do a list of things as "checkout procedure" like stripping beds of sheets, washing dishes/starting dishwasher, taking out garbage, etc.Thanks,Justin

Hope my lil story inspires you to go at it like a boss!

I'm not sure which of the two frightened them more, inspiring them to leave.

The tenant made such a genuine plea that we eventually ok'd the cat.

I thank her and tell her I'm going to come and meet her as soon as tax season is over, she seems genuinely happy about that.So we go back out there last night while it's still light out, find the for sale by owner sign on the mustard house, and actually find two more for sale by owner signs.First house (mustard one), I call, owner says it's already sold.Second house, no answer.Third house, this one had a sign on it w/ a price saying $24,900. 4 bed/2 ba.

Listening to the stories of other investors was very inspiring and ultimately helped me get motivated to take action.Taking action is the second step after learning.

But I am willing to do this if this opens up an opportunity for me to have a eureka moment and ignite in me inspiration for REI.  

Again I think she is a genuinely nice person but I do think I put in a lot of time with the friendly reminders.
