I've learned that if you start with an "@" symbol and then start typing the person's name a box will pop up to select the name.

I would only do this if you have excess reserves and are comfortable paying for any issues that pop up.Hands down, if you are trying to maximize return, don't paydown mortgage.

It just doesn't happen (the me).I kind of get it for the MF  if they are position for a sale or some other refi and they need to hold out for highest rents to make their numbers look good.but for mom and pop  just like Mathew stated above 2 months turns into 3 or 4.. and bye bye 3 to 5k you will NEVER get back.take you 30 to 50 months just to get even     even if you got the higher rent which you probably wont.its double whammy I have seen people do this for 25 to 50 bucks its crazy in my mind. 

It was a short term rental for many years and all of the touches really popped in the listing photos. 

.: more of a mom/pop operation, more willing to negotiate on prices than Mike's, sometimes will have very high end models for not that much more than basic stainless, less professional when it comes to delivery/scheduling. 

It seems like a good idea but I have no idea what kind of leases they're doing - gross, NNN, or month to month, since most of the businesses are small time mom and pop. 

What could pop up that we may have to pay for once making an offer?

We were looking for a value add property that was owned by mom and pop and had the potential for big improvements in both the asset and the management of it.

Everytime the term "Oklahoma City" pops up, I see you commenting on the thread.

Now that I'm thinking on it, I've had a lot of applicants ask if they could paint my neutral walls because it was boring to them.I was showing my friend, who is a house painter with an artistic sense, one of my properties to just show him what I was in to.
