Its why i travel to the Market I spend usually 2 to 3 days my office does a deep dive into MLS stuff..

I used to be a loan officer, however, I will for sure refer you to the experts as I have since transitioned to being a realtor!

I've had tenants come into my office visibly nervous about having to break their lease.

In today's market, many office landlords would much rather walk away from their properties and take a loss than fight to attract tenants and avoid foreclosure.

@Matthew Welk Happy to make an intro to the answering service team at CS Outsource that does our late-night support.They help with 24/7 emergency support, overnight coverage, troubleshooting issues, dispatching approved vendors & local staff, tracking and managing maintenance work orders, and other back-office tasks.

I have my office set up in another. 

A serious, no-nonsense buyer should totally consider this.Interestingly, most of the people who pursue this route with us are extremely analytical types: quants at hedge funds, engineers, accountants, lawyers, etc...Ok so seller is not screwing up his comps.. and the BAC goes to your office were you deduct I suppose your hourly fee then rebate the difference if any to your buyer.. and if for some reason you put more time into it than the BAC  then the client comes out of pocket to buy a home ???

For example:  Will these be solely commercial (retail, office, etc) or will you be looking at residential multi-family as well? 

An example problem statement that I may have stated (and built the software for) in 2003, when I started investing full time: Build a tool for lead generation that collects county records from the county recorder's office (and property card data), finds the recent first mortgage defaults  from trustees websites or public filings for properties that are between 1000 and 1700 square feet, in a neighborhood of 90% like-kind properties with greater than 20 parcels, houses built after 1978, that can cash flow at current rates when fully leveraged. 

It depends on your “ideal tenant” and strategy once you PCS.Would you be looking to rent to single officers going through training, military families with children, medical corps personnel TDY to Ft Sam Houston for several months, maybe even an AirBnB near Lackland, etc.?
