I think it's just checking the right box on form 593-C if I remember.

But sometimes I like to try and fix certain things myself, mostly for sh*ts and giggles ;) I remember being real proud of myself for switching out the toilet tank thingy that controls the water flow :) of course it took me 4x as long as a professional plumber, and I ended up paying myself a whopping $5/hour, but it we fun!

Remember you don't have to own a property to control it.

But remember there is there's no magic formula when it comes to investing.  

You have to remember as an agent you are held to higher standards and if a home owner feels as though they were taken advantage of (especially if payments aren't made after the transfer and the house forecloses)  then it would be safe to say you won't be an agent any longer.  

I will admit that I'm very thorough and like to make lists of things I'll need to fix, record a video so that I can look back and remember things later (as I've been looking at more and more properties lately), etc. 

Always remember Warren Buffett's Rule #1:  Never lose money.

Just remember the financed properties rule that Fannie has.You can have four financed properties with no issue. 

Remember you don't have to own a property to control it.

;)Ive been into Real Estate as far as I could remember.
