It is time to train your PM so he/she works well for you; or replace them.

Unfortunate for my clients but good for me, they were responsible for the repair.One key thing I learned - if the furnace unit is more than 12 years old - get it replaced as part of the original purchase agreement. 

My collegues here think "it's a scam" "it'll never replace REITs"  First it's not a scam I tell them, and REITs were designed as tax shelters not investments.  

Doors can vary...old rotted wood ones are replaced with newer steel doors (Home Depot ) I usually take the time to widen a doorway too if it needs it. 

You need help, but you expect everyone else to reverse engineer your deal to figure out the numbers.

The center and county offered a discount on high-efficiency toilets, which reportedly use 50 to 70 percent less water than normal models, and requests came flooding in.Today, installation appointments are three months out, and the tide hasn’t ebbed on Boulder County’s water conservation demands.As the United States consumes more water per capita than any other nation — more than 2.9 trillion gallons per year — the need to replace normal toilets with their more conservative counterparts is a real one: The U.S.

I am looking into replacing my stoves and dryers with gas over electric because they run at 300% cheaper on gas.I think the London hydro rates nearly 250% higher than other areas in the US.

My strategy is to buy and hold, and hopefully gain enough passive income to replace earned income at some point.

Track down an engineer that is familiar with the area, play detective kinda fun.

So I've been studying the state of the art, best tools & practices in Property Management, especially curious about Work Network development and proactive, preventive maintenance.What I've been surprised to discover is that the best PM platforms are full-blown accounting systems, designed to replace the likes of QuickBooks which has been so popular for so long.The thing I'm wondering is, if real estate investors are well diversified, they're probably doing a lot more than just investing in real estate.
