Hey everyone,I'm a business student at the University of Illinois and am thrilled to find a place where first hand real estate knowledge is so abundant!

I always receive an abundance of calls and from that point it is just a matter of finding the call that is serious and wants to move forward.

Conversely, Pittsburgh, PA is a perfect market flooded with abundant lease option tenants.

It's calcium, and if you have this, it probably means there has been water penetration over a relatively long period of time (i.e., not a one-time issue)...

The abundance of information presented the users with the challenge of "where do I start"?

for example, how many loans exist today that don't have a due-on-sale clauses, and there is still all sorts of info on the www assuming that these loans are still abundant and a viable way of doing business.that said, some promoters aren't comfortable selling, and an effective way i've found to still do business without hard pitches is to help others by giving gifts (in the philosophy of seth godin), and that gift can be the gift of knowledge. if someone ends up doing business with me, that's great, but i don't expect them to and i don't create that expectation on them.

But pointing out what is personal liability in this case also infers the only alternative available, as Will correctly interpreted.I'll try to dumb things down a bit in my writings from now on, and if I don't make it obviously clear for the least of us, I'm sure you'll be there to nit pick it until it is made abundantly clear.

But I tend to fall under the abundance mindset.I was just listening to the Go Giver Sells More audio book and they talked about making sure you are not a "Creditor" - I'll help you but now you owe me.

But the main thing for us business owners is sources of abundant and cheap funding, and that is not something my bank manager is able to pull off because his boss does not wish to do a working capital loan for my houses, which are like inventory to me.

There will be days when you curse having rentals and times of smooth sailing abundant cash flow.
