Moving furniture in and out vs. just a suitcase and using the property mostly just to sleep rather than living in results in very little to any damage between tenants.  

I think you'll sleep better at night if you hired a reputable GC.

Hey @Justin Sleep, This has become nearly impossible to inherit an empty building if there are current tenants there.

Life is too short to let someone make you lose sleep at night over senseless drama.  

Before I sleep and when I wake.

If dealing with a broken toilet or two, or hearing some footsteps above my head are the small challenges I have to deal with to climb to the top of an everlasting empire, then I'll put some gloves on, and sleep with ear plugs in if I have to. 

There is a reason investors want to put down the least amount as possible on a property, it's because the less you have laying dead in equity, the more you can put towards more property, but it all boils down to your debt tolerance, if paying it down helps you sleep better, then do that but if you want to make a better return and keep your equity stakes low, buy more property.

Use that as a starting point and then add more as needed.Remember that this is a tool to help you get your values correct and offer a price that will allow you to sleep at night.

I sleep very well knowing my properties are being handled by a total pro.

This lesson cost me a lot of lost sleep and big attorney fees.
