I hit the add to cart button & ship everything to my handyman or cleaners.I send my handyman and/or cleaners images of the renderings & tell them “I ordered you a bunch of stuff - make the room look like this please & send me some updated pics when its complete”The nice thing about this too is the large margin for error when the prices are this low.

Account Closed I definitely agree with you in the sense that working from home allows you to spend more time on productive tasks and eliminate a lot of unnecessary stress.

I'm surprised that they haven't reached out to me as the landlord if they are stressing she can't be at the property, but I guess it doesn't matter if she would use me to try to get back in as the law would supercede that.

Logically, investors will seek out an exit strategy that will for the most part keep their accumulated equity intact while offering more time and less stress for a relaxed retirement.Unlike IRA's and 401k plans where there is little tax relief available for those RMDs (Required Minimum Distributions) Real Estate Investors that have utilized the 1031 to accumulate wealth have a variety of options available for a tailor fitted retirement.

This can be a great way to mitigate risk and stress of stock market volatility knowing you have steady income outside the market that should not only be minimally impact by temporary market recessions/corrections but that should see steady increases throughout your retirement. 

The stress of being self employed is a different kind of stress which I find much easier to manage.

I cant stress the importance of avoiding that oversight!

I pay for slightly better than minimum stainless steel (ss) appliances, and stackable washers and dryers: fridge with gray sides instead of black (unless I’m putting it in a cabinet, then just make sure the handle is ss), but don’t splurge for an ice maker unless included (150ish more), Range has sturdy Grates with ss knobs, top and behind knobs (150 more) and is usually a 5 burner, dishwasher is solid ss with buttons on top ($100 more), over range microwave more stainless with a look similar to the range (25-50 more).

We’re buttoning up legal on a capital fund to scale STR operations and I’d love to hear what you’ve learned coming at it from the PM angle.
