And, I don't have a lot of deals under my belt, so maybe I just haven't yet been burned too badly.

Get a few nice ones like this under your belt and then maybe it's time to talk about holding onto something.Good luck!

I've been apart of the BP community for some time and just over the last year have gotten myself to the point that I'm comfortable with the knowledge and experience that I've gained.With just a few deals under my belt, I'm looking to strengthen my all around skills and abilities.

A pipe didnt freeze , a 1/2 inch sweat joint came apart , I just spent the last 4 hours with a rug doctor sucking water out of the carpet , and now have 4 large blowers going .

Moral of the story, you may not have a mortgage that does use it, HOWEVER, please don't confuse that with any silliness of knowing that is simply a tool in our belt to disposition a file that often times, the street level guy is naive to.This idea that, and I hate to sound, well arrogant, that mortgages are easily fooled or are easily convinced for other reasons, such as debt service, is ridiculous and dangerous.Want the easy math, do the IRR on an early payoff.

Please fasten your safety belt, hang on and enjoy the ride!!!

Several rust belt cities

The urban campaign will be focused on owners that bought investment properties in their 20s and early 30s 10-15 years ago and now have a family etc and don't have the time/desire to manage their portfolio.Mike Hurney, Is it the location of Wilmington (on the RT 93/95 belt) that appeals to you?

I'm Kendrick I've been working with real esate all of 2 days now...My goal is to get my first wholesale deal under my belt within 45 days.I also want to establish a network with you all.

Enough deals under your belt and the next one you find will be yours to flip.
