I learned the hard way that if you act like a buddy to your tenants, they will then start asking favors they'd never normally ask for.  

Get a dog and go after it buddy!!

If you would like some help I am here for you buddy as you know one person time.  

Pro tip from a buddy I used to buy eggshell which didn't tough up well since the gloss didn't match, switched to flat and you can never tell the difference and saves a lot of time instead of painting the whole wall.  

My buddy has 22 properties (mortgages on all) and I make more money on my 10 than he makes on his 22.

I was super resistant to turn our management over, but when I saw what our manager was able to get in terms of rents, I've never looked back.I have a buddy that is considering renting his house in Escalon. 

One of my buddies went to his rental to do a regular inspection and found the tenant had put hooks in the beam in the living room and had his Harley Davidson hanging there so he could work on it.

Yeah, check out Buddy Rhodes and the concrete countertop institute.  

*sigh*(This forum really needs some of those smiley icons that roll their eyes) Funny I didn't see you standing behind me when 1 cop told me to my face he couldn't do anything with it, but to push it to the street after he left and they'd take care of it on a buddy of mine's rental when I helped him push the car to the street.    

Utilizing contractors who guarantee their work, not their golf buddy handyman who's not actually qualified to even screw in a light bulb and then disappears when there's problems with the repairs.
