How long does it take to realize that's where these "gurus" make their money - they are marketers and maybe small investors on the side I spoke with one on the phone - I am curious and like to hear although I would never spend more than maybe 2k on a course.

📣To complete in-store purchases with your exclusive savings, make sure to the phone number linked to your account during checkout.Ready to get going to start getting more savings?

I also use Forewarn, a reverse phone lookup/name search service, which has been helpful for catching things the background check from Zillow Rental Manager does not reveal.

Feel free to contact our office anytime (email or phone). 

Moreover, you could simply say “I have experience buying multi family properties and would love to connect with you via email, phone or any option available to you.

This can be a very expensive mistake if you don't make the phone call to check.I am not going to choose sides or define multi-family because the original post didn't ask that and also because the answer will vary from one town to the next.I encourage any current or future readers of this stream to look at the original post then follow the advice I have given and will repeat one more time - if you don't know 100% for sure if your intended use is allowed whether by change in use or grandfather status, then call the LOCAL code enforcement office, explain to them your specific situation as well as your intended use, and let THEM advise you.Disclaimer - this is not to be considered legal advice, but I am beating my head against the wall explaining it because it is an elementary lesson in real estate.Best of luck to all.

You can absolutely make rhe time limit what ever buyer and seller are comfortable with.If your trying to convince a seller to give you seller financing while you flip the house a shorter time may be more convincing than a longer one.You could also offer some of the profits from the flip to help seal the deal.

I wish you luck and happy to help motivate you over the phone on why you should keep it! 

Could be lots of things.....anywhere from the AC itself to a very poorly insulated/sealed home

If you are expecting this person to go out and source the items and then place them in the unit that involves a lot of work, designer time, and designer energy.One way to get yourself on boarded with a designer would be to make some phone calls and see if they have openings for new clients as far as spending the time needed, because in our business time is money vs a family having their living room dining room and entry hall redecorated, where time is not probably of the essence.
