I'm not letting you know how much rent was actually paid last year because that information would just confuse you about how much of a hot money maker this deal is.

I am currently looking out of state for low priced, cash-flow makers.

The seller is the ultimate decision maker, not the listing agent. 

If cashflow is something that would be a deal maker for you, go to Cleveland.

Investing off the MLS is generally not a money maker. 

It’s been one of those things that I looked at so many deals that as soon as the those deals hit my desk I knew immediately they would be great money makers. 

I see two blocky white numbers floating in a space with the 27 on top of the 48.2748And almost like watching a Pixar film, I see a line appear below the 48 and then a 5 show up right under the line.

Policy makers - especially in blue states and blue cities - are starting to take note and coming up with “solutions” like the ones above.Nathan in answer to you direct question of how to turn the tide: 1) run for local office; 2) support other landlords who run for office; 3) actively fight against revenue grabbing initiatives like the ones I mentioned above - most of which end up hurting landlords and tenants alike.

The only line out of a Zack Snyder film ever worth repeating.

I want to make real estate investing as passive as possible so I have no interest in self management.
