Hello Folks,I have my test scheduled on a Monday.

If a seller is just testing the market with no real motivation to sell (death,divorce, downsizing, moving for job relocation,illness,estate sale,short sale,etc.) then you as an agent can spend all this money marketing a listing to it then not sell.

Sweet, awesome that you can do this math and conjugate verbs for your upcoming GED test, and btw do you by chance own real estate? 

Just like taking someone to test drive a bunch of Cadillacs and then show them the Malibu they can afford.

It's important to do modeling and run sensitivity analysis to stress test your assumptions.  

I got the message and decided to market test the idea: I threw up some stock photos of log cabins and then some scenic views of my country property and listed it on Airbnb.

Test your market and if either works it will be the best value increase path.

And when I do get licensed is it just a test online similar to drivers license test or do I actually need to go somewhere like a school?

Things like:- who directs the work- are there contracts in place for the work- how are the contractors paid (it is generally better to pay them on a job basis and from an invoice they present)- who provides the tools- do they have their own insurance- do they advertise- do they work for othersThose are just some of the tests that could be used. 

Again, we don't want to be slum lords, we want our tenants to feel at home and happy.Very early on, we noticed she was testing the waters to see what she could get away with and also, I don't think she likes us holding her accountable to the rules and being around her age or younger.
