I made a walk through today, and everything seemed to be in good shape with the exception of some soft spots in the hallway floor.

Went to another unit where another tenant moved out last night.Man they left tons of nail holes throughout.I said no nails in the wall.When this happens do you repaint the whole unit or just spot paint where the holes are?

This has allowed me to already know a lot about them at walkthrough and I can seal the deal on the spot (with deposit) and call off the other showings.

That's a tough spot, but exactly what Steve said.

I have posted about LLC liability in more detail in other spots but let me try to clear some things up although this may be oversimplified.

I reserved a spot last week for the event in Irvine.

I didn't expect so much substantive content in a 46 second video.Your I.D.E.A.L. acronym was spot on!

But if you're not selling or refinancing, it doesn't really matter.On the other hand, if you are pursuing a strategy that is dependent on timing the market and exiting quickly, such as a value-add flip, then you could get caught in a tough spot if the market turns against you before you refi or sell.You also don't want to financially engineer your way into higher returns by putting a lot of debt on the property, because if the economy goes downhill and rents or occupancy are affected, you may not be able to make your debt service.  

If the floor has pet stains, handle it Nicole Curtis style and stain it dark and the dark spots will just look like a variation in the stain.Check the sub-floor.

@Chaz Reid is spot on regarding motivation.
