 per pet? total, whether its one pet or three

Hi Josh! My husband and I live in LV and we are looking to purchase our first investment property. We're new to the field and to Bigger Pockets so will be as active on the forum as possible moving forward. We've been following some of your previous threads - thanks for asking a lot of helpful questions! 

Our plan is to buy-and-hold and utilize the property as an MTR/LTR due to the licensing restrictions (and saturation) for STRs in LV. It would be great to connect with you sometime to discuss further if you're open to it.  

go by this Principle, most people like to work with who they know like and trust. Like and trust can be a split second decision. 

You got the first part down on the Know by door knocking. but I would dress in a manner that is reflective of the community you are door knocking in. Unless you're on the beach, i'd avoid the flip flops and board shorts, but Also I think most people get defenisve or put off by suits when they are knocking on someones door, so Business Casual, collard shirt if that is something you'd wear or a Clean- Non Graphic T (unless you had your own made), clean cut dark denim jeans -- and some clean shoes. 

You will do better door knocking when you feel comfortable, and when you feel comfortable the people in front of you will feel more comfortable and they can tell (but we should also not feel like you are dressing for your living room either), and so dress how you would want to dress, in a way that is clean, professional, but more casual in clothes that fit well and are not uncomfortable to tight or too big--  otherwise you will feel it as soon as you knock on the door.  

Hey Josh, I am Active AF too and just got my license. I have been struggling with lead gen. I recently invested in a coaching program and am finishing up the training. I revamped my schedule to be able to prospect every morning. I am looking forward tracking numbers and setting appointments.

Hi Josh, I am not in the Military, but all of my uncles were. I am a realtor next to Camp Pendleton, lead gen is hard, but I would recommend getting as many refer partners as possible outside different bases... example, I give a referral fee of 30% on all closed transactions. I have a couple of good referral partners, I am happy to share with you.
