They got the message, dog was removed, she confirmed and I did my random drive by to double check.  

Hi guys, I wanted to do a random inspection on my rental home in Illinois without giving the tenants any notice.

Wifi, security system codes, video doorbells, smart locks, cameras, speakers, self installed devices in their room etc.I'm sure there are landlords that have some of these in their apartment rentals too

There are many youtube videos online where you can learn about QB.

I absolutely KNOW that any business that takes the first place on Google WILL be very successful... eventually.Here is a random snapshot of my leads coming in a week in June.Imagine... about 4 to 10 leads a day.

@Justin FraserGreat job teamIng up .. btw I enjoy listening to matt’s YouTube videos and have watched them all

So within 7 months of deciding to get into real estate and watching ( current number of BP podcast at 201), and reading automatic millionaire, Richest man in Babylon and some Gary Keller books, and most of the rich dad poor dad series, and watching a ton of YouTube videos and taking experienced professionals out to eat and gain their insight and knowledge, I can say I reached my goal of purchasing 2 properties.

Going through the ordeal I randomly met the owner of the place I was renting, and after comparing notes, the owner removed their two properties from L&Y's management. 

They have offered to compensate me out of contract, because they "want the numbers to stay where they are" someone I know, knows the tenant which i didnt know until recently, they are the one who informed my agent and I of the appeal and the lack of military service, she showed me the court documents that the seller and her agents have still not shown us, The person i know that knows the tenant said he HAS NOT been staying in the apartment in fear that the courts are going to find out hes not a veteran and have the sheriffs come arrest him as the court is paying the tenants weekly rent because he's an unemployed scum bag who lied about being a military veteran, She's also told me that he has signed a new apartment lease somewhere else and she has offered to and has started helping him move his stuff out of the apartment.I forced my agent to get back under contract yet again, she made the close date for tomorrow Friday the 13th of all days, the guy still isnt out of the apartment fully(meaning all his stuff) there are still random people answering the door who are not on the lease who are missing teeth left right and center. still no walk through. yet, everyone still expects me to close tomorrow, I'm telling my agent, NO let me guess, contact an attorney?

I know older bigger pockets videos pushed this but no...Like others have said, go to the meetups not to get to know people but for people to get to know you.
