@Mark Forrest, now that it has been 10 months do you have any update on what direction you took?

And I am curious if you discovered any of those creative ways. I am an investor friendly agent and have been speaking with clients about this.

Any advice or words of wisdom is always appreciated!

I have a slew of investors who have constantly inquired about using a Project Manager to make sure the communication and timeline with the GC is flawless (or as close as possible). I was curious if anyone has advice on how you would vet a project manager and if you find it beneficial? Thanks!

I am trying to reach out to anyone who has information on the South Bend market. Specifically, I am trying to connect with anyone who currently or has in the past has Air BnB properties.

I am also hoping to connect with any individuals who are brokers or investors in South Bend.

Thanks BP!

Hello BP, I have a question regarding an owners liability while holding an empty lot in a residential neighborhood.

The lot is between two properties and is in a run down area (Low to mid C). The lot has become active with drug users and occasionally has needles left.

There is no fence and we will not be putting one up. We asked the police to keep watch for drug use and there is a no trespassing sign.

This lot is in Indianapolis, IN and I want to know if something happens to a child playing while entering the land or if someone ODs (praying this doesn’t happen) what our liability is!?

Please help, any and all advice is appreciated!

Thanks @Cassi Justiz I appreciate the input!

Hello BP friends,

I was interested in what investors were doing for yard maintenance for rental properties, as well as properties they have in contract that are in holding.

Do you higher someone to maintain the property or do you ask tenants to take care of their own property if it is residential.

Also, if you do higher a company for lawn care, what do you expect to receive from these services, or particularly look for? 

BP! For all the investors out there, I was curious if you will only work with one agent in the market, or do you have an agent you will turn to, but allow options for investment properties to come from many different agents?

What is your thought process behind your decision?

Thanks!

Congratulations @Justin Goodin! I personally cannot provide you any help in this specific area but will PM you someone who may be able to!

I will also be attending for my first meeting! Cant wait to learn, share, and network. Feel free to connect or reach out anytime before!

@Jian Lin fun one to mix things up that also relates to everyday life is:

Chris Voss

Never Split The Difference

This is built around negotiating. His real life FBI hostage situations he encountered and what methods did work and why. Then relates it right back to everyday life. I found it very useful in RE as well. Plus once you start trying some of the methods/techniques you can have a lot of fun!
