Thank you for taking the time to remind us that we have to be vigilant and hopefully you've prevented some of us from having to make our own mistakes (although you, in fact, didn't make any).Paying the deductible is a really nice gesture.  

It reminds me to be glad we are holding onto our property in Seattle. :)If i still lived there, I would totally be looking to buy something in Tacoma.

While I won't try and talk you out of personal coaching, I will just remind you of the best source of information and learning right in front of you for just about free: bigger pockets, networking, podcasts, etc.

this reminds me of my first flip.The house was 30 years old and had shrnkage cracks in the slab.  

Great reminder Jeremiah!

I highly recommend finding a smaller company with smaller projects (it reminds me more of the independent real estate field).  

We also remind ourselves to save for investing properties.

@Lane Kawaoka thanks for the reminder ✌🏼

Also, given how they have done this, they are probably still legally required to pay the broker fees, so you might want to remind them that they'll owe 5-6% of their home's value for commission.http://buteralaw.com/newsletters/real-estate-prope...

That reminds me, I spend Sunday afternoon creating my budgets for the rest of 2017 and 2018 and  should probably use those budgets as the basis for another post where I dive a little deeper in the numbers.
