More buyers are coming into the market daily, real estate may be lagging behind, may have it's ups and down, but that's the cycle. 

I’ve been operating on about 5 in a row daily contact attempts and then moving to monthly calls.

My advice is to figure out what gets you excited, take meaningful daily action toward that goal, and you'll be amazed at what you'll accomplish over the next ten years.

FICO, experience, and LTV are also factors but this is the basis of the loan.

Do you find that typically each tenant wants their own bathroom vs sharing one with someone else or it's a case by case basis and depends?

Both of these options (selling or raising rents) will benefit you - it is truly up to you on what would make the most sense - raising rents will definitely drive up your cash-on-cash return on a monthly basis but selling would also allow you to acquire a large sum of money that can be used for new construction so that you can maintain your current reserves.

Hi Michael,I would recommend not listing the house on a per-bedroom-basis.

Needs to be in writing (email etc.) but generally, we don't allow any changes until at least the 1st full year.After that, use your best judgement and go on a job-by-job basis and inspect (for example: they paint one wall or room before you let them paint multiple spaces, AND the color is approved in writing as well).

I'd love to connect with anyone that is available on a regular basis to learn.

The only loan that matters is what you can get today, which is roughly 6.65% + 50 basis points.
