Maybe in your eyes..

I ended up paying every time.. you get those puppy dog eyes and when I grab the check they never insist.. the only one that I made pay was a lawyer who wanted my take on redemption rights in Oregon.. 

I highly suggest you to learn how to manage properties by yourself first so that you will have good eyes to choose the right professionals for you later.Exciting!!

I'll keep an eye out for a property with the RV space!

If you have the right Hard Money Lender, they're another set of eyes looking at the deal.

If a firm is charging a fee contingent on the tax savings, that's a no-no in the eyes of the IRS. 

As far as parsing out the outliers, that's not particularly difficult, given a sufficient sample size- meaning, if you look at enough similar properties, there's a handful that will stick out like sore thumbs that can be discarded.Charles, I wish you had messaged a little earlier this morning. 

Also, as a benefit of my handyman business I will always be driving so I can keep my investor eye out as well for places.The question is, how would you go about driving every street in a small town efficiently?

Also, find out the health and eye test requirements and make sure that you can qualify.Owning real estate IS a business, even if you have someone else manage it for you.There is a big jump between "starting a business" and "having a big corporation."

We will keep a close eye of the market and hopefully the market doesn't crash in the very near future, which could lock up part of our money for some time.
