Glad to find like-minded individuals that are willing to make those sacrifices upfront in order to enjoy serious gains in the future!!

@Joseph GarnerI know this isn't the sexiest answer, but when I first got started looking for commercial lenders, I basically googled all the credit unions/banks in my state and called each and went down the list until I found one who first would lend on the type of real estate I was buying, second offered competitive terms/rates and finally I had an initial good vibe with for a long term relationship.

Education, I have purchased some great apartment & syndication books by performing google search rankings & reading Amazon book reviews.

@Adrian Reyes most any old thermostat including will let you set high and low limits google the one you have perhaps it’s all you need.

Search "Subject to" and you'll have hours of enjoyment reading the posts.

We have attempted to contact an abandon home by using both Google and Facebook to try to track an owner down.

I enjoy doing things that others find too difficult and I jump in while everyone else walks away.

(I also googled it, and it's an active LLC.)

If I see that their current arrangement works for me I keep the same company, if not I find other local companies online and feel them out over the phone/website/emails and through reviews (google & biggerpockets are best friends). 

My vote is to sell cash out and enjoy it.
