They have me paying them directly instead of the old landlord now. 

So, I've been thinking about getting creative and trying something new to me -- AIRBNB.I'm a mountain biker, and I found a property that would appeal to me as a renter.

Podcast and books I read really confirmed that this was the right direction to move toward How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

I got a local guy in DC that can point you in the right direction.

Not so much if you're representing a landlord or tenant unless at their direction. 

So what I decided was seeing that I know RE is the direction I really want to go I stopped my TSP and decided to pay off my car loan and a personal loan faster and cut down the interest I pay overtime..

I started by putting out ads, bandit signs, car decals, direct mail, etc.

Curious how they've directly impacted people's real estate investing decisions. 

Might even have to direct mail a bunch of owners to find the one that doesn't know how hot the market is.
