I do believe this to be true being that you can't control what other people do, only what you do.

This will make you more confident and gives you a sense of control at the bargaining table.

I had been planning to go, but a condition that I thought was under control flared up.  

@Tyler LushbaughYou don't need a real estate license per se if you are going to buy and hold or fix and flip, but it gives you the power to control your own destiny and not be at the mercy of real estate agents who are either too busy or extremely uninformed on how to work with investors.

But it's all mine now and I'm in complete control.  

Have they said when the smoke or where the smoke is more noticeable, In a complex I managed a patio smokers fumes went right up and in the above units door.. it's hard to control, best to eliminate if possible.. any cigarette use in common areas is lease infraction, so no halls, laundry rooms, ect for that. 

Costs can really spiral out of control when you not only have to renovate, but also undo someone else's crappy renovation attempts.

Jorge, would I still generate qualified calls from renters (tenant/buyers) for my rent-to own homes I control? 

I just shake my head in disbelief at the overreach of inept government trying to control others businesses.

Also, it gives them control of their issues.
