Very nice. Are you using realtors, wholesalers, or internet sites for your leads?

BTW - I have a son who lives in Tallahassee and another who lives in Fort Lauderdale but attends UF 1 weekend per month for his masters degree that he is getting online.

Sorry that deal didn't work out for you but like you said, it was a great education.

 I can't get the @ to work, please sew the reply to Daria above. Cheers

Hi Don,

No, unfortunately that agent didn't work out. New nothing about working with investors. His boss is the broker and invests on their own but wasn't really interested in helping me. The other 1yr agent was who I was "handed" over to and that lasted about a day. I met another guy while searching for a PM who is also an agent and investor and have gained more information from him although I've still not bought anything in Tallahassee.

 Bruce Carpenter 

Broker/Owner Avenue Realty

I have tried many, and will only use him. He has flipped houses, brokered mortgages and is very savvy with notes. Not to mention that he personally handles all the listings, so the broker is handling the listing(which is a big plus to me). 

I used him 1 month ago and he sold 2 condos for me in 1 week(full asking price). One buyer came up short on financing, and Bruce was able to find a note investor to cover the difference.Give him a call. (850)545-7408

Welcom to BP. I am will be wading into new construction myself. Your experience should lend itself well to any avenue of RE you pursue.
