And as a side benefit...I feel that once you put a name to a face and have the personal interaction, they might be more open to working with you (even if it's not intentional).

@Joseph SkatesI'm not sure I clearly understand your question.If your business is collecting waste then you will most likely have a couple of possible revenue streams: a dumping fee you may/may not charge to folks who bring the waste two you;scrap fees you may collect on sale of the various component elements you extract from the electronics.Depending on where you are, there may be a provincial program which will supplement one of those revenue streams (kid of like the tyre levies charges my many/most provinces).  

If it's on a slope, and you have to redo the foundation, as well as add structural elements, then that alone can be over 100k just to have a box.

Some elements that will make a condo non-warrantable are:* High investor ratio* Insufficient reserves/Bad financials* Litigation* Buying as investment vs primary/2ndWhen the condo is deemed non-warrantable for the specific transaction, then the only financing option left is a non-warrantable condo portfolio loan.Hope this helps.

In the mean time, I'll be reading, learning and interacting here on Bigger Pockets.I am glad I joined.

All other work-foundation, framing, drywall, texture, finish-should be done by a professional.There are many different kinds of laborers that you can hire-licensed general contractors, licensed contractors for specific elements of the building process, skilled craftsmen, and laborers.

Beside working with clients, constantly interacting with our industry insiders helps to keep me current.  

@Theresa Omeludike Driving neighborhoods and spending time using/interacting with the MLS.

We look forward to interacting with the BP community and getting to know everyone in the area.

There are certainly going to be some tried and true elements, but we believe as technology, culture, etc. change that so may business structures and practices.With all of that said, as brokers and agents, what service, support, and features are most valuable and most attractive to you in where you choose to do business?
