Since he is in the military you might tell him that you will pay off the liens and donate $5000 to Wounded Warriors.

(But am a Warriors fan, sorry.

As real estate investors we are like warriors, and every day we go into battle.....there is always something or someone out there trying to stop us, which is why only a few succeed.

just curious how do you rent a car without a major credit card.. and a lot of other things require it like checking into a motel etc. as a road warrior I cant fathom how I could operate without a card.. ?

I can assure you he doesn't lose sleep at night thinking about the poor people that can't afford his product.Your job is Landlord, not social justice warrior.

Keyboard warriors are good with numbers in volume, but in my experience, lousy with making the deal work because they have no clue what the actual condition of the house is in.

@Wes Shive   sure   let me start with Apple,  Google,,, Facebook,, HP,, Varion, Stanford University, the 49ers, Sisco, Oracle, Genetech, The Giants, the Sharks The warriors, the Raiders,  and of course the new comers like linkeden and another 100 to 500 high paying jobs.. now compare that to anywhere else expect maybe Atlanta,, Dallas Houston and LA with Chicago right up there and of course NYC and Boston...

And if you are warrior about liabilities make sure your insurance coverage are on point and look into umbrella policies.Make sure you get an updated rental form as laws may have changed.

My agent always goes out of his way to make sure he is getting the best deal for me he can - getting them to cover closing costs - pay for FHA stuff, and fights for things I might otherwise let go , but he stays strong - sometimes in the middle of "battle" it feel good to have an 'experienced warrior' on my team.

@Paul Ewing - I really appreciate the fact that you know the road warrior lifestyle.
