Rather than claim to know it all, I will ask the people who have more business experience than me.

How would you promote a non-profit? I am registered in Florida and have a solicitation license. I...

You know you spelled grammar wrong, right?

Are you honestly telling me that being a landlord is difficult? I know a 20 year old who does it as he plays computer games.

And because I don't desire money. I desire free time.

I would rather...

You act like it's complicated.

The only difficult part is saving up for the down payment and other initial expenses.

All the more reason to go with mobile homes.

You assume that I've only put 5 minutes worth or research into something when I have put more.

And I said $200/month per home. I didn't say I was only going to buy one home, did I?

In fact, I'm...

Or maybe I have no need to learn. I know enough to get by with what I need to do for now. And I'm surprised you said "months" rather than "hours."

There's a point of learning what is useful to me...

Also the fact that I don't have or plan to have any business that would require me have some generic search term that I would need an SEO expert to get me to the top of google. And even if I did, I...

I will let you know when I have the website up and I get it to the front page of google. I am probably not even going to do that non-profit thing, but I will do this just to show you that I can.
...

Why do you think I don't know what SEO is? Search Engine Optimization.

Servers are free to me. So is PayPal.

I can look at a web site and see if it's just as good as all the other ones, and...

Yea, I'm sure there will be pitfalls.

Another thing is, I'm planning on doing all the repairs myself that don't require a licensed contractor. I don't even know how to do that yet, but I know I...

Yea it's all about the economy. That's why the people in India are willing to do the same work for less.

One time, I posted an advertisement on craigslist saying I needed a website made. I got...

Other than roof, a/c, furnace, water heater, refrigerator, stove, plumbing, and septic maintenance if it is on septic, is there anything I'm not thinking of?

That is true.

But I think my tenants would have their own microwaves. Refrigerator would be mine, though.

And when I say "expected repairs" I am going by something like this...

"A roof should be good for 15 years...then you can put another layer on it. A roof with a new second layer should be good for...

Well we'll see how it goes.

The $200/month was after the expected costs for repairs. So that is what I would (theoretically) pocket.

You are saying I don't know the numbers? Are you sure about that? Where did you get that from?

Pick any old numbers and plug them in to a formula and there you have it. And you can get expected...

Yes I do know them personally. And that's how I can do it. I have talked to them. There's not much to say. You can overcomplicate things if you want, or you can simplify and see that it is not worth...

Because I have a cosigner. Not all repairs require a contractor.

I bet I know more about how a computer works than you do. Can you explain to me how a processor works? I could explain it to you....

How do you know what I know? I don't have a mortgage calculator? I don't know what homeowner's insurance costs? I don't that you pay 1% of the mortgage for the premium and 1.15%/12 per month?...

I made this post a few weeks ago and will agree it was a bit speculative. Do not buy with borrowed money? Are you including mortgages in that? Because I know people personally who have done just...

I'm going to refer to the terms on the lease contract and the rules written in the statutes. I have known people who have went to court on Landlord and Tenant issues. They did not have law degrees....

Well regardless, I know a guy who is a landlord. He is 20 years old and plays computer games all day and he manages to handle it.

Screening tenants wisely would be a good bet.

But I suppose I...

I didn't disagree with everyone. What about the guy who told me about fiverr? I see no appreciable differences between the web sites you make and the one I got. Not worth $975 anyway.

I will let...

Yes, I might as well be an accountant. I know how to read a tax form, read the instructions, and anything I don't know from there, google could probably help me or other forums.

I would be hard...
