People notice hustle, and if you show up with a positive attitude and a willingness to learn, you'll earn respect.As for finding a mentor, look for people who are where you want to be, and ask them thoughtful questions.

So many prospective tenants don't read ads and call/text/email with the most ignorant & stupid questions, 24/7/365.

Since I started renting out the house in May 2024 and will likely move out in 2025 after the leases for my current renters end, I have a question about depreciation.Can I depreciate the portion of the house that was being used for personal use, even though I was living in the house for part of 2023?

Hello,I have a question about the BP rent estimator. 

@Heidi Fahringer wasted time doing several calls and then a meeting with a CPA and then got shocked with their proposed fee.After even more wasted time trying to find out from them why the fee was 10x what I had been paying - a lightbulb in my head finally lit up and I asked the revealing question and found they had a minimum charge.Obviously, we were not a fit.

Starting with a property that is either new construction or turnkey that offers positive cash flow is a smart strategy.Feel free to reach out if you have more questions!

@Mary Jay I was not asking you to lie but just answering your question. 

Let me ask you a side question here.

Thanks for those great questions! 

Also, your agent should be able to help you with these questions.
