The amount of regulatory paperwork involved was mind blowing.I do not see realtors going away just because of the amount of paperwork involved!

Things I remember learning from the course, and now forget: how many sq ft an acre is, what the "back 40" means, random information about where property rights end if you buy along a body of water (being in Ohio, this means lake or river).Things I learned, that I have never used while investing: All the random legislation like Fair Housing Act, lending laws, etc, when these laws were enacted, which one covers religion and which covers age...  

Hi @Tyler Nemmers,  Building near any kind of body of water can present challenges in the foundation from the start. 

Most QI's have no government or regulatory oversight.  

I only earn about 30k a year as an auto body technician.

If the land-lord fails to record the required regulatory agreement within six months of filing for this exemption and puts the units back on the rental market, the rent shall not be decontrolled and the unit must be offered to the tenant that was displaced. 

From reading books and listening to podcast it seems highly success people wake up and do three things: get their mind right (meditation or listen to a podcast or book), get their body right (physical exercise to wake up and get blood flowing), and get focused on the top tasks they want to accomplish that day.

Have not worked with them, but the areas in your title vs body are very different- silverstar I’d be very careful investing in if unfamiliar with the area, so if that’s what they are selling you make sure to really do your due diligence 

Check with the appropriate regulatory bodies to verify that they are in good standing.Review the terms of the deal: Carefully review the terms of the deal, including any contracts or agreements, and make sure you understand everything before you sign.

A look into Austin MSA related to real estate before & after the COVID-19 pandemic, and into the future.I wrote a similar paper almost a year ago today, good cross reference for this read.Leading up to and continuing through the “Stay at Home” order, which went into effect Tuesday, March 24th — the sellers market went from red hot to, “what do we do next.”Investment buyers across the board repositioned themselves — with iBuyers like Zillow and OpenDoor stopping purchasing completely, large funds lowered buy price requirements by up to 10%, and local investors were waiting for the dust to settle for the most part.A 10% drop in buy price standards is substantial and a direct reflection of how low demand was in mid-March through April.Speaking from a realtors perspective, throughout all of this and despite realtors being deemed essential, the COVID-19 etiquette/standards took some time to develop.Every governing body related to real estate was looking into and implementing best standards and practices for real estate related job functions.As a result, listing activity was down immediately — April saw a drop of 21.6% in number of sales year-over-year, while May saw the biggest dip in year-over-year sales at 29.2%.
