If it is a true diamond in the rough and you feel confident you can do the project yourself with out to much risk to you, then hell yes.

Some easy ones for you is the Black Diamond event in Waltham (2nd location in Worcester as well) and the Boston Area REIA in Medford.

I find it so hard to find good buys through short sales...so many realtors in my market are flipping homes right now but there's still a huge market for it based on the lack of inventory and the quality of homes for sale.So again, what MLS reports and data did you run to find your target neighborhood and such a great diamond in the ruff.By the way, the that incentive on forgoing commission to motivate the listing...genius

Ones that you should look into are the NERIEA in Chelmsford, the Black Diamond events in Waltham (2nd location in Worcester), the Boston AREIA in Medford, a quarterly meetup in Woburn with a heavy BP theme (next one in June) and a couple of meetings on the North Shore.

i haven't had any experience with the rental guarantees as yet but experience trumps all, go with the know how's. as they always said nothing is guaranteed in life. keep all your options open the mls has some diamonds in the ruff.

You should check out the Black Diamond meeting in Waltham (2nd location in Worcester) as well as the Eastern Mass REIA in Rockland (2nd location in Taunton).

You'll meet some of the more experienced at the Black Diamond event in Waltham.Good luck!

An obvious one for you is the Black Diamond event in Waltham (2nd location in Worcester) as well as the Boston AREIA in Medford.

Various exotic animals for pets, the biggest diamond in the world, 2 Billion, and a pimp cup lol.My father has been involved in real estate and investment for the past 32 years successfully and I have nothing but the utmost respect for him and his journey.Although he makes a modest living.

There are always diamonds in the rough if you look but I am not sure by finding just those diamonds a robust business will emerge.
