If you're doing smaller deals, especially single family flipping/wholesaling, the license is very helpful to some friends of mine; they use it to comb the MLS and to offer the selling agent their piece of the commission.

I get a better sense of the area's market when I look through sold properties with a fine tooth comb as the saying goes. 

I'll be combing through the podcasts and posts for information on this too

So cal is highly competitive so unless you've got someone combing over the landscape to find you those deals 24/7 great opportunities will be difficult to come by.

I've combed through previous posts and found a few answers to my questions, but I would like to have a collaborative discussions with people successfully either BRRRR, or Portfolio Loans, or Refinancing within the Metro-Detroit area.  

I definitely plan to check the place out with a fine tooth comb as soon as I can get inside. 

I immediately wanted him to send me RMLS properties that he said he would comb over daily and send me links to.

It is not very common for owners of these types of homes to have 70+ years of repair history on hand, let alone have delivered that to the company selling said property.Your best bet when buying a home (especially from afar) is to pay an uninterested 3rd party inspector to go through the home with a fine tooth comb.

Have also thought about giving her a small finder's fee for combing the listings to find properties that meet my exact specifications for my buy and holds.

I'd recommend attending local REIA meetings, networking with agents, driving for dollars, direct mail, combing expired listings.
