I am expecting to do 3-4 deals per year until I get to 20 properties or so and then snowball the debt so they are all paid off by retirement. 

@William J Anderson you want assistance in analyzing T-12s for the purpose of purchasing a property?

If you are new to investing we also need to spend some time somewhere, maybe 1hr to talk about your expectations and the realities of the market and see if there is correlation.Interestingly enough I think with the NAR lawsuit some expected commissions to go down. 

Expectation?

@Kenneth Jenkins you forgot to mention owners that expect a PMC to use contractors off Craigslist that are unlicensed, NOT insured and rarely have acceptable experience/skill - but, they quote the "best" price.These same owners will sue a PMC if using these types of contractors results in a tenant lawsuit.

@Sherry T.

Quote from @Kandice Morgenstern: Does anyone have a good lease clause to outline responsibilities and expectations during mandatory evacuations?

Managing investor expectations.

Just make sure you follow the landlord/ tenant laws in your area to a T, deliver all the notices when and how you’re supposed to etc.

t happens, and it usually happens when one least expects it.
