The official report comes in next week which I'm told will likely have more.1) Electrical in the bathroom is off and causing issues with the lighting and exhaust fan. 2) There needs to be smoke detectors in all 3 berms.

I also travel for business weekly, so it makes it that much more difficult.

We motivate ourselves by setting goals, holding each other accountable, and celebrating when we hit the goals by traveling the world.  

I will also make the assumption that majority of AirBNB travelers are leisure travelers and not business travelers.  

Jason,I've used Russell Truluck our of Travelers Rest for a number of house inspections in Greer.  

I would not personally define my success by the amount of knowledge in real estate I have; I define it by how well I have been able to utilize that knowledge to reach, or facilitate, my major goals in life, one of which is to have enough supplemental income from my rental properties such that it + my pension, when I retire, provides me the same comfortable existence and large safety cushion as it did when I was working, and that being able to retire so young (early 50's) will allow me to reach some of my other goals, long time/distance traveling being one. 

I travel to Kenai a lot (family) but live in Anchorage. 

The goals I hope to attain from becoming a real estate invertor is control over my financial future, fuel the love I have for properties, freedom from a life stuck in a 9-5 working for someone else and ultimately create a substantial amount of passive income to allow me the freedom gain irreplaceable family time as my wife and I decide to grow our family as well as travel more than a normal 9-5 would allow.I look forward to soaking up all the knowledge I can from this site and connecting with you all.

My main concern is safety, but the good news is, I'm willing to travel up to an hour outside of central Houston for the location.

I want to be financially free and be able to travel with my wife that is my ultimate goal in life.
