Perhaps in the future, you instead just give a plate of cookies, a dried soup in a jar that's colorful and pretty (I did this for tenants and my own neighbors), a Christmas ornament, or something along those lines.Also, I'm willing to bet that your Tenant A needs you to deposit checks quickly because that's how they budget.

Rents are about $1200 for a two bedroomWith a mortgage I can pay on my own, even if I lose both tenants, so up to $2000 per month in total expensesI want to ideally find the ugly duck in a cluster of nicer complexes, so, a property that is livable, but where I can add value with some light of medium remodeling and beautification/upgrades.

Thicken up that skin and carry on.

They serve mostly sandwiches/soups but have other menu items as well; delicious pies.

And tenant can cause issues, so up to them.When **** gets bad, it gets bad all at once. 

Stories such as yours are of great value to folks who have not done it soup to nuts. 

There will be no soup left for you.Most of us that survived doing this for more than a year were working 'in' our business early on.I like your drive and your scrappy-ness @Raeshelle Cooke. 

In the last 3 years I was working and stashing cash so up in savings.

They seem to have a streamlined process for investors to purchase property in a variety of markets with a soup-to-nuts service platform. 

I've wholesaled in Texas for while now and want to continue so up there.
