If I may ask, why are you opposed to having a property manager for the properties?

I am philosophically opposed to being litigious in situations like this when the situation you are in is, in my opinion, no one's fault but your own.

I am not opposed to competition but this business is not for everyone!

Anybody that might be opposed to this form of big brother intervention recently passed (regardless if you do business and or live in Massachusetts) can voice their opinion in the following ways:- Contact the House Ways and Means @ http://www.mass.gov/legis/comm/h34.htm- Contact the Joint Committee on Financial Services @ http://www.mass.gov/legis/comm/j11.htmAs I see it both as a lending professional & homeowner, we are at a cross-roads---we can either "Speak up" or "forever hold our peace" (and potentially surrender a piece of our freedom and rights of choice).

Can someone explain to me the pros and cons of trying to rehab HUDs for resales or rentals as opposed to the traditional means of searching for distressed sellers to get you a discount?

The loan can have a return that includes an equity split as opposed to just straight interest.

I figure those are probably some of the more motivated sellers since time has nearly ran out for those situations, though I also realize this probably isn't the right forum for that (being the REO as opposed to pre-foreclosures above).

Likely capital gains will be higher in the future as opposed to lower.

Just offering an opposing viewpoint.My husband and I are both Realtors and a team.We both "share" the non-gendered identity of Malok for internet purposes.I do agree though, that if someone wanted to actually conduct a transaction with another person in this forum, they would provide their relevant information in some form or fashion.

I'm pretty much opposed to rentals in these districts, and most around here are huge and not really rental props...so no worries!
