I am not a smoker, but I don't have any rules against it.Reasons stated are valid reasons for prohibiting smoking indoors - having a fire is not.The risk of having a fire is very low - and probably even lower for Dennis Tierney, since the other tenants are more aware of the dangers now.Taking a proactive approach to things is good - like prohibiting smoking indoors because of the wear on the unit, or outdoors because of the second-hand smoke.Being reactive to things like fires is bad.If you never had the fire, would it still be right for you to prohibit smoking outside?

There are only two ways to fund a valid note, in an installment contract selling the property which funds the note buy equity or earned equity or with cash disbursed to the maker (borrower) or to their account.

The major window makers (Anderson, Pella, etc.) don't seem to have anything that is simple enough.

If my end goal is to make Real Estate my #1 job and to grow an empire, where do I start?

The carpet was the cheapest indoor/outdoor carpet imaginable.

You won't be finding owners willing sell their $300k property for $130k so the 1% rule works.I am generally confused when things like this come up, and they come up a lot around here.If I were thinking of opening a Starbucks, because they sure are money makers, but my immediate location was a horrible market for a Starbucks, I either:(1) would open it elsewhere (and accept associated headaches with remote mgt), or(2) not open a Starbucks.Why is the real estate business any different?

And any help or what to watch out for.I am not going into this as a major money maker but I just wonder how likely a condo or other vacation property will keep up or ahead of inflation or be about the same as I would make on conservative investing the same amount.I am just starting to think about this so if you can point out any good things to read or just tips in general it will be greatly appreciated.

Now, such a deal would certainly be a money maker.

., and actually find decision makers on these portfolios?
