Thanks alot for your replies and taking the time - i realize these are pretty general questions - hopefully once i start i will have more specific problems to question everyone about!

One thing I realized just over the course of the last few days is how in any persons life it's odd in that some areas you can feel limitless and have an extremely good understanding of.

I realize that's not always possible.

And then after you run the numbers, realize that you might lose money if your property goes unrented above your vacancy rate, and/or you get a bad apple that destroys your home and decides to never leave and live rent free.

Anyway, I came across this website this weekend and realized immediatley how beneficial it could be.

i've never been exactly right but i've never been more than a few thousand dollars off and if the success of the deal hinges on a few thousand dollars hopefully i'd be smart enough to realize it's not really a deal.

if you can realize that everyday is an opportunity to learn something new - you'll always be growing.

:DAfter a recent visit to a friend in L.A. who manages her parents' commercial and rental property, I realized that working a 9 to 5 just wasn't for me.

I've been very happy with their service then I recently realized that my customers (and me too if I'm paying their closing costs) are getting killed on fees.

One thing you have to realize about buying rental properties for cash flow is that you can't think over the course of a few years.
