I love BRRRR and in my opinion if you master BRRRR your a Black Belt smart investor.

I can't even compare usage for upstairs cos there's only one reading as there's now a smart meter which has stopped the sub meter from working.

If the agent was smart, he would have junior realtors on his team that could help people like you.

One could easily argue the last example is the most important decision one ought to consider and even if an "accident" popped out, what about subsequent "accidents".If a tenant is not willing or smart enough to consider these sorts of things, most landlords take a pass, because most landlords want tenants to be considerate of property during their stay, and if they can't even take care of themselves, why on Earth would they believe they are going to take care of someone else's property?

It’s still not smart for a new flipper to go get 100% financing from a HML. 

I have zero doubt there's a lot that makes CO investment a smart play, but unless I'm missing something (and I am pretty new to RE investing), those factors all add up to an appreciation play, correct? 

Either way, leveraging a few deals VS using all your cash on one is definitely a smart move in my opinion.

Seems like a smart way to go.

@Nathaniel Miller - Social media outreach is a smart play.

I feel confident about making a smart purchase, and I am looking to purchase my first rental property.I came across a duplex.
