Would it be worth it to 1) buy a whole house RO water filter with a UV light with costs like $2000 or 2) do they water test for 1000$  annually then buy a specific water filter for like 2000$ which would come out to like 3000$ 3) or continue to just not test it and tell tenants not to drink itit just seems ridiculous to spend 1-1.5k annually on water tests is there a better way to deal with thisplease reply if you currently manage rentals or own rentals with a well water supplied to tenants. 

.- Spend over 750 hours a year in real estate activities.- And more than half of your total working time must be in real estate.It’s not for everyone — and you have to document it properly — but for serious investors, it’s one of the most valuable tax tools out there.Most people think wealth in real estate comes from appreciation and cash flow…But the biggest gains often come from how you use the tax code.Curious — have you or your spouse ever tried to qualify for Real Estate Professional Status?

Lean FIREGoal: Retire early with a minimalist lifestyle.Annual Spending: Lower than average (e.g., $25K–$40K).Who it’s for: People comfortable living frugally and cutting expenses significantly.⸻2.

However, I do spend a fair amount of time in the Springfield/Worcester markets.

Cash Flow Comes First — Not AppreciationA lot of investors get seduced by the “hot market” or “future appreciation,” but you don’t spend appreciation — you spend cash flow.When both houses rent for the same $1.8–1.9K……but one costs $340K and the other $386K + needed repairs…You’re already seeing your answer:✔ Peoria: Lower price + fewer repairs = stronger cash-on-cash✘ Gilbert: Higher price + renovation costs = weaker cash flowAppreciation is a bonus, not the foundation of a sustainable rental strategy. 2.

@Account Closed you haven't shared why you're looking to network.If you're hoping to network with agens & PMCs to have them feed you offmarket properties and other types of "deals", you're just one-of-a-million to them.We get inquires almost every day from OOS investors looking to invest in Detroit.For FREE these investors expect us to:- Drop everything else we're doing and focus on what they want- Spend hours on the phone with them TEACHING them how to invest- Spend hours finding deals for them- At this stage, many NEVER want to make an offer, just want to see better deals or they just disappear- Find lenders for them- and on and on and onSo, right or wrong, it's no wonder many in the industry ignore communications from investors.Recommend you network in person and be respectful of their time.

.🛒 Retail Sales Point to a Cooling ConsumerSeptember retail spending grew just 0.2%, and the control group (the GDP-accurate one) slipped negative.

Takes a bit of work, but you can do it from anywhere and don't have to spend any money!

Many people in the industry think wholesalers are not spending money on their businesses.

It is easier if you spend some more time finding the right tenant.
