Jonathan,This is very sage advice.  

Open ended questions on the landlord's part is sage wisdom for sure. 

This is where sage advice would come in handy.

John,@Steve Osowiczoffers sage advice.  

What do you think of large volume of luxury student housing going up, like all the Luxe/Sage/Blairhouse type buildings?

My brothers and sisters here have given sage advice.Above all, be careful with hard money, and have multiple exit strategies to get the lender/investor paid back.And double above all, bring the killer once in a lifetime deal.If the deal is good enough the money will come!

I'm a contract specialist with Sage.

You probably never caught one because you have to call "here, snipe, snipe." as you walk around in the dark.Around here they hide in the sage brush.

Sage,I am a beginner as well and I was told that section 8 landlords are great source for buyer list.

As I said, I'm also new, so I am not able to give sage advice, but we may find ourselves working together somewhere along the line, and it may be good to bounce ideas and things we learn as we are learning about real estate investment.
