Is anyone familiar with the Century 21 training program here in Houston.

"Deal of the Century" That is how this property that I am interested is being marketed.

When I was doing loans, as a LO, my greatest "commission", was being able to educate my clients, who were prime targets for the scam of the century.

It is hard to keep up on the market since I quit being a Realtor back in the mid 90s, so I needed a resource to stay informed.My father helped start the firm, Century 21, and was a Realtor for 36 years.

During the first part of the 20th century, Pit Bulls were the most popular family dogs.

The RE investment business has been around for centuries and while there are always changes, I don't see any evidence that this business could become "non-desirable" to the point it was not profitable.

So, what I'd like to do instead is build a solid, cable enforced, 21st century bridge where you and I can work freely and efficiently and continue to expand our business' while continually solidifying our relationship.

I'm a people person, so what I did when I first got licensed in 1993 and worked for a big Century 21 office with the top dogs that were vicious was I went door to door in a neighborhood that I had an interest in and lived in.

Every house is different but there are very old houses in the country that are still going strong even though they were built in the 19th century.

Try this thread for a bunch of BP links I posted regarding getting comps:http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/103/topics/39825-investor-making-an-offer-on-a-short-saleAnd this one seems worth reading too:http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/93/topics/40912-cyberhomes-com-vs-zillow-com-the-battle-of-the-century-And don't forget to vote for that post if you find it worthwhile.
