@John Moran,There are number of active investors as well as service providers who are frequent contributors on this forum.

A property management company is a vendor and I wouldn't give equity in exchange for vendor services. 

So the only question is, does the Market Rent for that location and Type of Unit cover the HOA, plus Debt Service, plus whatever other Expenses need to be paid..Because if it doesn't, the Landlord is in for a world of hurt!.

@Kevin Allen Joe Jr's Flooring, google them.

I would stare at house plan books for hours on end as a child, before creating my own floor plans.

Second floor vacant and first floor is occupied by a long term tenant.

The landlord wanted me to get the first floor painted.

The landlord-tenant relationship is simply not all about bloodless logic and the simple exchange of money for a service or product.

Although I would primarily be in the business of wholesaling I’m also going to have my real estate license and I want to offer the services of listing homes and helping people find their dream homes or investment properties.

All that is needed is to finish - cleaning, floors, baseboards, decorating, etc.)
