In addition to Rich Dad Poor Dad Check out @Scott Trench's book, "Set for Life" or @Brandon Turner's book, "The Book on Rental Property Investing", both available here in BP Marketplace

If you are a diy kinda guy, just go to marketplace on face book and find a used black dishwasher from a good home where they upgraded and pay $100 or less and slap it in yourself.I have a total of 28 units in 6 buildings and that means 28 stoves, 28 fridges and 12 dishwashers.

Mind posting detail and pictures here or in the market place?

No checks unless they are certified.

Craigslist, Realtor.com, Facebook Marketplace?

One sent me a nice certified letter with his Ohio LLC name on it in the State of Florida.

ROI and interest rate are two sides of the exact same coin.If you really want to lend money out at 5% without any of the pesky modern underwriting requirements, post this fact over on the marketplace and you will have more borrowers than you know what to do with, until you are depleted of money/houses. :) (A non-trivial amount of these people will just be re-lending the money at 10% and 4 points, which is what some people currently already do with HELOC money.)

They then present their Comfort Animal Certified Online it’s Legitimate (RIGHT!)

My question is, to be legally compliant, how does the letter need to be worded, what particulars need to be included, and does it have to be sent registered or certified?

When averaging about one deal a year is it worth the expense and time spent to get certified?
