You certainly need mentors to progress without a doubt and in turn should become a mentor for as many people as you can starting the journey later than you to pass on the knowledge.

Best of luck going forward and I'd love to hear how things progress with it.

Feel free to reach out.I also just applied for an ADU at one of my properties so we can both keep people updated on this thread regarding how long the application takes, any issues that come up, and the overall progress.

It is written in progression so that each chapter builds on the home buying/renting process.

@Greg Dickerson  Don't be dissuaded by your slow progress. 

I’m looking for a sub contractor based in Miami that can evaluate/estimate repairs on an outdoor gazebo in a private residence.

Good luck, stay in BP, and post your progress!

While the poor and middle classes haven't seen their income rising much over the last decades, they're surviving thanks the deflation resulting from technological progress and ever cheaper goods being produced in countries like China or Vietnam (although that has been destroying many of their jobs). 

We have one spreadsheet template for deal evaluation (research) and a second one for managing each property we own (track tenants, rent, security deposits, LMRs, the loan, and a few different summaries of financial performance). 

Just went under contract for my first STR and evaluating some tools for self management.
