I'm going to play around with different direct mail pieces and something bold and direct will definitely be included.

hey guys I just recently graduated , looking to play professionally , but also get into some investing !

Any advice is greatly appreciated.David,Here's what I do for my multi-family buyers:Yes it is hard to estimate for maintenance because of a lot of variablesBut I know its expense is less for more units, for things like 16+ unit buildings, onsite maintenance room for storage materials, onsite employees use less hours to do work ordersSome entities even volunteer their residents to pick up grounds, hence minimizing your maintenance costsIf hdsupply.com accepts your account they specialize in multi-family buildings and you don't have to use man power for delivery or pickups And yes, you can do analysis paralysis but it might help you the bank's formula DCRThe 1031 buyers look at expenses differently Yes there's a number per door, e.g. if the units have been neglected you will spend at least one month's rent in turn ready unit expense    An organized well lubricated team should turn ready units in 2-3 daysPay close attention to the human factor, i.e. low self-esteem employees who will take longer to turn ready units or do work orders with poorly workmanship, theft, etc In capital expenses, concentrate in a few and more expensive to start with, AC, plumbing, electrical

This is where the 'growth market' comes into play--support always having a renter pool. 

Depending on the opportunities, we'll probably start with flipping and do buy-and-hold at a later stage, both in the Netherlands.In my private time I enjoy playing field hockey, sailing/boating and doing all kinds of technology projects (Arduino, electronics, etc) I love technology, how it makes our lives easier and I love to combine this love with real estate.

Now a month later there was no power through the lines.

Other strategies such as sub 2 transactions, installment sale transactions, leases and lease option to buy arrangements can be devised with TIC.Comparing a sandwich lease or master lease, a TIC owner you do not have to worry about the seller selling first before you sell; you can pass title as an owner and executed sales contract through and screw with your tears a partner or you can have a "power to sell"On biggerpockets we have talked about the problems with wholesaling, not being on legal title before we market the property.

I've invested in several countries where the governments don't have the power to take your property and have more stringent personal property rights than the US.  

Had to play devil's advocate

I bought this software and have been playing around with it.
