I did this for two nights - let them get comfortable with the traps. 

Our kids had to work on almost all the projects – they got paid each night at the dinner table – food!

@Joseph Hennis I sent you a PM last night that pretty much echos what @Ryan E. just said.  

A must read for those unfamiliar with the city.https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/772/topics/40...https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/67/topics/357928-question-about-recent-flips-in-tacomaDriving the neighborhood is good but I recommend actually leaving the car and getting out on foot and you'll get a better sense of the area - especially at night.

I grew up with Heinlein's quote, "always ask the experts, they will tell you what cannot be done and why- then go do it"  Anyway, we are doing a rehab and I hired a guy on the spot who I met serendipitously- I was going to do a painting job that night, stopped off at the lawyers, and there was a painter there.Anyway, wound up hiring him to redo the bathroom.  

I have been wondering, I am aware of many seasoned investors are prevalent on this site and this also goes to anyone who has dived into the investing world. 

We're done, it went on the market Friday night.

The tenant can pull up a truck and move some desks and chairs out in the middle of the night and be gone.

I am big into using yelp and I check most everything out on there if I am in a new place and want to find anything from a good place to eat, to a place to stay for the night.

I do plan on diving into investing (I'm thinking fix and flips will have my heart) soon after I get the feel for residential real estate.
