The mentor mentioned BP and the light apparently clicked on for one of the newbies and she said 'I know that guy (my mentor) at the next table he is on BP."  

I really appreciate the two-cents (It definitely created a light-bulb moment for a newbie like me!)  

I suggest you bring the issue to light by contacting one (or more) of the following:Real Estate attorney that specializes in HOA law (to potentially sue the HOA)Local newspaper investigative reporterLocal TV news investigatorsOffice of the Ombudsman for Common- Interest CommunitiesCommission for Common-Interest CommunitiesI particularly like the locals news investigators because they would handle all of the work, benefit from it, and help bring it to public attention, thus helping others and the community as a whole.

We're not on the same page.It would be great if I partnered with someone who wanted to take on the day-to-day execution of this strategy so I could work on finding the next one and pulling together the financing for the deals.Don't take partnerships lightly.

Second, The tenant in the middle unit has Christmas lights hanging from the house over to bushes for some reason and also has a punching bag in the front yard, It gives it a "Ghetto" feel  for me and I would like him to take his things inside.

In that light, what is the turnover rate, current loss to lease, incentives given for lease-up, offsets, bad debt, etc)?  

Real estate really lights a fire in mme so I'm excited to soak up all the knowledge around here!
