This is my first investment property purchase.Location: Sugar Creek (right on the border of Independence, close to the intersection of highway 24 and Sterling Ave), neighborhood rated B+, low/no crimeProperty: Built 1917, 6 bedroom 3 bath, 2 story, 2,200 square feet, 2 car attached garagePlanned Renovation: New tile flooring in kitchen and baths, new countertops, new carpet throughout, appliances, new light fixtures, interior paint, exterior pain, new water heater.  

Generally, I replace appliances, toilets, flooring and paint, lighting, etc so there isn't too much to be called about.  

There is a 6" x 6" vent about 6" by the vanity light fixture (on the wall), in fact, it covers the vent.  

To me, money is merely a tool I can use to provide for my [future] family, help my neighbors across the street or across the ocean, and do my best to shine just a little bit more light into this world. 

While making some small talk with my biggest investor about looking for more deals he gave me the "green light" to shop for more deals and jokingly said that he wants to see my debt to him grow much bigger.If you are struggling to raise private money get extremely detailed on what you plan to do with your investors money and kick on doors till you get your first yes!

Putting pressure lightly on him to get him to close in on comply with full lease.Yes will carefully vet the exterminator story.  

In this field, training and education is very important but so is keeping your lights on and food on your table. 

Didn't read all of it.When you buy carpet you can get a plastic vapor barrier put in underneath to try and protect the floor.You can turn off the lights and take a black light to show all the urine stains.
