@Julie Beall I have not rented to a hair salon, but I bought a building that had a hair salon in it.

And these returns do NOT add back commissions - they are net of commissions, carry, etc..We expect this new one to be even better.It has hair - defendant represented by a chop shop law firm, so they will extort us - but we planned for it.

@Andy welcome to BP you are going down the correct path my friend what I would suggest is that you go to at least 1 meetup a week and befriend an investor you can find the real deal makers in the back with grey hair start up a simple conversation and explain to them your goals and what you want to do help make them more successful and in turn you unlock the door to FREE Knowledge just keep at and be persistent man you will someone because older investors always like helping younger ones.

You can read all you want, but you just don't know until you are in the middle of the process (wanting to cry, pull your hair out, sweating profusely because it is phoenix in the summertime and 116 degrees and what were you thinking flipping a house?!)

You can cut your own hair, but you'll probably have less success in the dating world.Agents probably still sell 95-98% of the real estate.Plenty of people think they're experts that go at it alone, but there is plenty of value using a realtor.

motivate' seminar attendees to "be their own boss", "escape the rat race", and "take control of their life" (with requisite slideshow of people enjoying leisure activities that YOU TOO can enjoy) all while belittling those who (ironically) choose the path of fiscal responsibility.Do they parade cardboard cutouts of the pretty faces from the teevee shows on the stage while the excessively tanned guy with pretty hair does his best Glengarry Glen Ross and tells you what a loser you are if you don't fork over the 40k?

People are so well off as “poor” they sell their food stamps, section 8 while spending 300$ a month on hair and nails.

No matter what, you will have to buy special products or pay for a professional service to get the smell/hair out of the unit when you go to turn it.
