I have done quite a bit of research, but am still in process.Initially, because funds are limited, I plan to focus my energies on wholesaling.

@Engelo Rumora  I believe you are one of the few people that have the energy to wrangle 40 pigs a year!

Lots on Energy at the Black Diamond meet ups.  

If there is a sale surplus you have to generally file a claim to get your share.I think there is a bunch of wasted energy on these made up idea of shock packages and whatnot.  

This landlord (little old lady) doesn't want or have the energy (I guess) to tell the renters who's in charge and I can see the property.

Do you have the time, energy, and experience to do your own rehab work on flips that need more than just a cosmetic upgrade? 

The other half just says to spend the time, money and energy on other RE deals.

There is a ton of free info and books out there and I think you should learn through those sources first, but if you learn by the hands on coaching and in your face high energy teaching, you may be best served with a guru. 

Not all of these issues were related to the house, but all were issues that reduced the value and are an opportunity with someone with the expertise or energy to tackle them.

Then I apply the same analysis to the hot water source.Other things I look at are:- Installing low flow faucets and shower heads- LED or CFL lights- hot water blankets- new low flow toilets- new energy efficient appliances, etc.- occupancy sensors in common areasIn Nova Scotia, there is Efficiency Nova Scotia which is tasked with helping control energy demand.
