@realEstateTrent They act as a broker without a license.

@stevehunsaker1 Saw something similar on TaskRabbit once for house cleaning. Booked a guy for $42/per hour, he messages me back and says, 'thanks for booking, here are the rates'.

$85 per hour, per cleaner yadda yadda yadda.

He was farming out the work, using his profile.

@HSchenewark Dang!!! That’s a great price.

[FromTechToToilets @ToiletTalkMatt]

@pestctrlguy Ohhh no kidding! There's absolutely no need for a mechanic at that point.

[FromTechToToilets @ToiletTalkMatt]

@irentdumpsters $1600 sounds like they don’t want the job and priced it high, hoping you’d not bite. That’s obnoxious.

@juliusmarchi Perfect excuse to drive up and see your mom!

[FromTechToToilets @ToiletTalkMatt]

Dang. Driving for dollars is such a great move.

Maybe make the investment? Fly up, rent a car and scope out neighborhoods.

This would give you a really good vibe on each neighborhood, where to avoid and where to go after. Plus, you could build that list of property owners to contact.

Web lead form came in and the prospect has a Netscape email address. You don't see those everyday.

@pestctrlguy I will pick up a phone and cold call all day. But there's a mental barrier to walking D2D for me. Your team has ice water in their veins.

[FromTechToToilets @ToiletTalkMatt]

@realEstateTrent @ 2.5%, that $5.75 million. Brokerage gets what, 10-15%, they split the rest?

[FromTechToToilets @ToiletTalkMatt]

@StumpGuyTy I’d keep the screenshot and text it when they say it’s too high.

[FromTechToToilets @ToiletTalkMatt]

@juliusmarchi Definitely paint the walls, but leave the wood white. That will give it a really nice dual color and make that bathroom look really new with those new features.

[FromTechToToilets @ToiletTalkMatt]

@JaredDHardin Good deal. Local Eggs in NoCo run $7-8 a dozen.

[FromTechToToilets @ToiletTalkMatt]

@irentdumpsters That’s exactly what I was thinking. You’re running two tough businesses, while your customers gets almost zero additional value.

@juliusmarchi My properties are across the country, but even if they were across the street, I’d hire a property manager.

You already know, rentals are not passive, but a PM makes them a little bit passive.
