Don't forget to upload a picture of yourself, and we want to hear all about the nightmare that is BRETT, his toilet, and your first eviction proceeding!

@Dane Hebert  You have to issue what is referred to as an "adverse action letter." 

You don't have to have all the answers yet but will help you get your plan of action together.Also listen to the podcasts and create keywords like "London" so you'll get alerts.

Early in your RE career its easy to try and make things a deal, when after you have been educating yourself for awhile, you look at properties to see if they are a deal.There is a balance between jumping too soon and not taking action,,,just slow down a little bit until you feel knowledgable.If you can find a mentor and run deals by them, then you will be closer to making a purchase,,but find a mentor in your area if you can, they know the market, which is a BIG deal.

You need some insight into college leasing.If there isn't a house mother there, boys will be in there, if for just long enough for the weekend party.Girls can be pretty bad, in over 12 years of college tenants, girls were the worst, not talking about messy, talking about nasty with all kinds of stuff flushed down the toilets.

The savings alone would pay for it.You might consider installing high efficiency toilets and shower heads. remember every dollar in expenses creates a value ten equity creation.Good luckPaul

I have 2 out of state properties and my management companies take care of everything for 8% of rents (emergencies, repairs, tenants and if a toilet is overflowing, I don't get a phone call!).

You may want a shower bar and a grab bar close to the toilet so they can easily locate it.

hi Attila - I'm also a newbie from Sacramento but you are way ahead of me in action.

I can't pay $125 an hour to change a toilet.
