There is still some food on the table, and your contractor and property manager are the 2 main players that help you harvest it.

I was getting folks living in units periodically, usually during fruit harvest here.  

*knock on wood* I'm working on harvesting some equity to put to work in a landlord-friendly state like FLFL: so I've heard!

They harvest, and separate the good from the bad.Then come the investors/rehabbers, the "processing plant" where the "wheat" is turned into "bread" (ugly houses are rehabbed).Then the processing plant ships the bread to the grocery store (rehabbers seller's agent) who them markets the bread to the consumer.Sure you could farm yourself, process yourself, and market yourself.

But you do not need a ranking website to start harvesting leads.Buid a great converting website, and then manually drive traffic to that site, either with DMM, PPC, post cards, what ever... but sending questionable mailers  and on top of that spend a fortune sending said questionable mailers is just plain stupid!

I do not mind waiting 2 years; it is not the only deal I am working with and this would be harvesting a good deal for the future if possible.

I think more importantly is if an investor doesn't understand communication then no matter how many calls they get they won't be able t harvest.  

So if you have a 401K for example you are not taxed at the beginning (or like the book says on the seed), but taxed when you go to pull the money out usually at a higher rate (on the harvest).

I especially like how you are considering having the trees harvested and potentially selling the land to a developer.
