Lets define A, B, and CThere are many definitions floating around attempting to define investment properties.I like to start with the community in which the properties is located.A neighborhood = 95% homeowner or betterB neighborhood = 65% homeowner or betterC neighborhood = All rentersThese neighborhoods could also be defined by the land value, on which the subject property is located.

The most important thing is that you define where it is you want to be and be sure to write it down on paper.

Choose a few well-defined themes for your blog (the riches are in the niches).

You can believe you know exactly what my relationship is and how you think it should work, but it gets defined on a client by client basis.

Define exactly what your goals and strategies are before getting into the legalities and usefulness of entities.

If they are causing damage, breaking rules, performing illegal actions, etc. that will define what exact action steps you can take to get the eviction ball rolling
