I am usually not willing to try to get them to speed up too much, as I am always afraid it will to cutting corners on the work.

So yo're a friend of theirs and agreed to keep a secret.I know more can be said than what is being said, let's keep it as a big secret....ooooh, LOLThere are no secret ways of cutting a deal that have not been done before, so I'd say if no one can explain why it's different, it's hype!

Hopefully this incident was a fluke.The Fallacy of Sunk Costs :cool: Although not quite enough to cut them loose, I'd be VERY careful to make it clear that this is not acceptable behavior and they'd better follow the letter of the agreement at all times.Poor tenants always end up costing you a ton of headaches and costs.Keep an Eagle Eye on them and show them who's The Boss

even just a standup shower would make it sell a bit easier. i feel like trying to sell for 80k is really cutting your profit margin.

I busted my but cutting grass in the hot summers but knew I had something bigger in store just didn't know what at that point.I will say that now IS a great time to invest in real estate.

I like the idea of the planks that stick to each other and not to the floor - just had to cut the spending at one point or another.

Mine had to be cut in half and I don't recommend that.

Robert, I'd also suggest you amend your incorporation filing and operating agreement to provide a much broader scope of business to be conducted.While that old catch-all phrase, "to do all things necessary and/or related to" really doesn't cut it in RE.

I may keep her on the payroll at a lower rate, just to cut the grass, do evictions, so I won't have to lose a days work and to yell at the tenants when they are misbehaving.

Cut your teeth with half a dozen SFRs, buy a 12 unit, then jump into this.
