The difference between 2004 and now is that there are far more robust online tools to connect you to the kind of information you need to be successful in that kind of endeavor. 

construction stops trades move.. vacancy occurs.. also i can see renters especially millennials who are really finally getting it that renting is throwing money away and with the ultra low rates home sales stay robust.

This is not true for low credit score applicants, so you need to have a plan in place that provides incentives for you to get paid -- for us, this means having a robust late payment policy that tenants understand and that provides incentives for early communication, routine payments and limits on possible losses.  

We didn't get it passed that first one, there was a minority coalition who opposed us, but we did get a next step on it, so we completed that next step, very strategically planned that next session that by chance a member of the opposition coalition was not available for, and our proposal passed and we received a variance to build a duplex. 

You would do well to fix it up to ensure it's safe and robust before placing another tenant.

My question for you is, do you have a strategic plan, or, are you just in buy mode with no coherent plan in place?

@Russell John Walsh I understand where you are coming from.For strategic positioning, do your best to not be physically in between the door/exit and the female.If you ensure there is always “an exit strategy”, and you are physically out of the way, that is a proactive action you could take to address your concern.

I also represent tenant clients in lease negotiations and strategic placement for both office and retail uses.What drew me in to BP was my personal interest in getting started in acquiring property for myself and having some skin in the game.

However, it does seems that they offer more robust features than Resharmonics at first glimpse. 

Hi - just looking for a sanity check as I strategize to buy my first multi-unit building.
