If the listing agent doesn't have a team, they would probably be thrilled to have someone who would want to do an open.

I'm thrilled about possibilities for the future, and am looking for a mentor and some guidance for a investing game plan.Take care!

I think its a neat concept, but I personally will not throw more money than I could afford to lose into it in the meantime (just like if I were at the casino, although I am not too shabby at blackjack ;).

I am not much of a gambler...heck, whenever I end up at a casino (with friends or a group that goes there) I lose all of my money at the bar.

As of right now i'm not too thrilled about forclosed properties, especially if they've been vacant for long periods of time. we have so many up here in Michigan and I'm not opposed to buying or listing them, yet there does seem to be many problems with forclosed properties legaly (Who is responsible for the property?)

Most are buying condos in the casinos and condo hotels.

Do you think the person that hit a jackpot at a casino just won big?

Beaches AND casino's!

Not sure where in CA you are but after spending a week in a waterfront part a couple of weeks ago, I'd say that the average seller there would be thrilled to see any offer, even a 70% one.Of course the problem that many of those seller have is that they have to get OUTSTANDING LOAN BALANCE, or else bring cash to closing and their market has declined since many of them bought in the last year or two!

i was actually putting together a jv deal on a vegas casino build and the client asked me if i knew anyone with an reo portfolio, the same day another client happened to ask if i knew any buyers for an $800,000,000 reo portfolio and that began my venture into the reo world. i just happen to stumble directly into a new york investor with $3,500,000,000 in his personal bank account on my very first deal so it has been pretty easy for me when the packages are real. the hard part is weeding through the fakes and scammers.
