@Evan Polaski That is a valid point although the 15M number is inflated by putting a 60% ROI on top of the massive gross profits for 10 years.

They never mentioned that he (of course) paid less in income taxes, but that he paid a massive amount of Capital Gains and other taxes.

What is it that you plan to do that is so massively dangerous? 

This article highlights Micron Technology Inc's pledge to massively expand their chip production capabilities over the coming decade.  

I have a MASSIVE oak tree at one of my properties that is very much alive, but is damaging the driveway and sewer lines.

Followup is obviously massively important here but I think it's also smart to know which ones to just dump in a follow up sequence campaign and focus on the ones that are actually interested. 

May to August are the massive income generators then you should be willing to open your property to longer term snowbirds (retirees north of the Mason-Dixon Line); it’s not prescriptive but a proven technique.

We do not go under 20% and would only consider it if you had a property with massive income potential or a portfolio of luxury properties. 

It sucks, I had several people do this to me in my first year of real estate and there is no way I was not on the ball when it came to communication etc Guy 1 was just a POS and kept telling me he was waiting for a new preapproval but would never give me the lender contact details - he strung me along for over 4 weeks (he had closed on a property and was still to chicken sh1t to tell me) I eventually found it on social media, called him out for being a pu55y and left it at thatGuy 2 went back a week later to a property we submitted a contract on (massively low balled and didnt get it, which was not my idea) with his friend who listed his home in the other part of town and who I had spoken to so to make sure he was ok with me being the buying agent  and resubmitted an offer (the lender told me).

This rule is 10x true for OOS investors, because if you're OOS, you're relying on a PM, and there is almost zero incentive for a PM to put in the massive amount of work needed to correctly manage a property in a D or F area.On the bright side, there are lots of lessons to learn from this type of scenario.
