does not mean this will also happen to you.So this is what you do.YOU need to do a cost/deal calculation for every method for lead generation you are considering for your market.Now you know how much money you need IF you were to do DMM, or IF you were to do bandit signs.Now this is DATA, so you are not gambling much here.Then factor in the effort it takes and the time it takes for a deal.Bandit signs may be almost free but it is illegal and a LOT of effort and work, and again risk for hefty fines.DMM simply is a bad idea... so figure out what is feasible and then you go for that!

Teresa Thomas CPA question for taxes

Understandable...With Rentals, you get all your income "Tax free" through out the year, as the gov. doesn't touch it. ( example $1500 rent x 12 months, looks like you made 18k )   But then it's time to PROVE that you didn't really profit  18k.. subtract the obvious mortgage, and then factor in repairs, depreciation, and anything else you can do to chip away at this...So maybe your bank account is up $ 200 / month in cashflow.. but not after repairs.. maybe you only made $25... on paper :)
