Sometimes people ask, "With all the challenges and frustrations that come with the land lording business, when you weigh the pros and cons on everything is it really worth it?" My response is that I have been a landlord for 25 years and I would not get out of the business. Sure, I've had days I have been upset, but not enough to throw the towel in. Over the years, I've had people tell me, "I could never be a landlord." They've watched me, cut the lawn, paint the house, shovel the driveways and walks, clean up after tenants an prepare the apartments for the next tenant. Now I watch THEM go to work every morning and come home every night because I retired on June 30th. I was able to because of the property I own. Because I am only 52, they now say, "I wish I had done what you did." I wish they did too, because it's tough finding people in the middle of the week to play in a foursome!

Hi
I just read your Life -Story which sounds very interesting to me. I am (35) originally from Germany, working here in LA as an architect. I am all my life more interested in real estate investing, than in architecture itself. Another Real estate success story I’ve come to know about is of a stay home mom turned millionaire lady Charrissa Cawley who owns a company called REI Conferences. Have you ever heard about her? During a short span of time of about 1 year she turned her self into millionaire, this is really great achievement. I came to know that she gives free training every Tuesday night at 6:30 pm pst. I am thinking of listening her to decide what can I achieve in the real estate investing.
