For those of you in California, I'm sure I don't need to remind you about the awful heat wave we had just recently.

I'm lucky that most of my properties have sprinkler systems, so it's set it and forget it for the tenants.In the last two years, I've only had to call and remind someone about cutting/sprinkling the lawn once.

I guess that means they're going to phone up their "mentor" to remind them how to do it.NOTE TO EVERYONE READING THIS POST.

Also, when selling/persuading the homeowner, remind them how long it can take to sell a home.

We're glad you're here, and hope you do lots of business.Since you're new and may not know, you can subscribe to a thread such as this one, and an email will be sent to you when someone posts a comment.You can set up your profile with your name, phone, address, and even website in your signature so that every post you make will remind people how they can do business with you.You will want to prowl these boards often because people will often post a request for funding, and the first one to get to them frequently gets the business.Well, that's the end of my welcome speech.

It reminds me of a famous story you hear in the marketing industry about a man who wrote a book several decades ago called “How to make $150,000 per year.”

Also take into consideration I have no idea any terminology nor do I understand even how to go about buying a house.I hope everyone understands I am a beginner (just like you were) and I am trying to build a solid foundation of knowledge first.PS: for those who are going to remind me "experience tops book knowledge" or "Just do it" or “buy low, sell high”......ect please don’t post; I am looking for people who can help.

Reminds me of the Salem Witch Trials.For example, if I were the one posting on the Maryland preforeclosure issue, I would have said, "I have seen on the Internet and different forums that there are some laws in Maryland around contacting preforeclosures.

And I thought the same thing when I was reading down the page, and agreed with your post before scrolling down to read the rest.......I am not trying to put you down urcinus, it just reminded me of previous experiences in my life as well as a few other people I know.

Nope.Remember, it wasn't the Realtor who initiated thisit was my friend (who reminds me alot of you Ryan).He's in construction, and has a sixth sense.
