If your real passion is to pursue an entrepreneurial venture, I would focus your time and energy on that.

But you've got to be prepared to spend a fair bit of energy property hunting, and be ready to pounce quickly.

Of course, I still have lots of energy and still like lots of action every day, but now I evaluate that differently that I did when I was 25.Thanks for any comments or suggestions you may have.Russ H

This results in maybe 1 to 2 deals the first year even if they are a dud in creating additional business.The first 10 years as an agent goes usually like this.First 3 years is 80% new business and 20% from your existing sphere of influence.Next 3 years is about 50% new business and 50% repeat business.Next 4 years is about 20% new business and 80% repeat business.It's not that you aren't getting new business it's that by now you have a group of people that you know and want to work with on a daily basis and do not want the ONE OFF deals that take a bunch of your time and energy.

Remember, everyone wants to be successful, but only few will put in the time and energy to actually obtain it.Good luck!

Over marketed property at a inflated price will not sell unless the seller comes down and the market catches up closer to their price.The question you have to ask yourself as an investor is " How much time and energy and resources will I have to use to try and find a buyer at an almost market price for a property?

Don't ask me about my eyesight or energy level.

Here we are today, and if those people had spent as much time and energy focused on investing as they did on "preparing for the end," they'd have made a lot of money over the past few years.Nobody knows where the economy is headed, and even economic geniuses can't account for the non-monetary factors that influence national and global markets.

The energy here is really great and I am looking forward to gain and shareRegardsSrinivas

After all, you're paying for utilities... why would they want to be energy efficient?
