They are not becoming the authority in their market.. they are just another face among the thousands of other realtors/investors.The absolutely best advice is to start building your network (other agents, title companies, management companies, investors, mortgage brokers etc...).

I am not an expert by any means,  but I do have rentals in south seattle and burien; near renton and I have looked into this a couple times when I had sec8 recipients inquiring about vacancies.The way that the housing authorities require you to verify income is that you can only verify income against the tenant's portion of the overall housing payment.  

@Owen DashnerChris Voss author of Never Split the Difference is a better negotiation teacher than Grant Cardone.

Most people would find that excessive, but it is very inexpensive.If you are used to just living in a bedroom, my advice is either find another room to rent or move into a property and rent out your extra bedrooms.As I have gotten older with a family, I value a nice home in a good neighborhood more than I did when I was younger.

It is a daily challenge to navigate the local, county, state and federal governments; local Code Enforcement, Housing Authorities, Department of Real Estate, Franchise Tax Board, Secretary of State, IRS, Dept. of Fair Housing & Employment, HUD...to name a few. 

BS's next big event is in March in DFW, but look on his web site for more info. 

For PPC to be effective you need to have a good web site with a clear call to action. 

So I ended up cancelling the order.In the grand scheme of things having tenants wait a month for a part seems excessive, but it is what is it if this is the only one I've been able to find.

@Matthew McNeilThe BEST books on Cash Flow which tells you exactly what it is, how to use it, and why you should really study the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) and it's derivatives, is this one: What Every Real Estate Investor Needs to Know About Cash Flow..However, you will need to understand Excel Functions and how general spreadsheets work.The other issue is that the Author, Frank Gallinelli, probably makes the assumption that most of the readers of this book have at least High School Math.I will tell you from my own teaching of Adults, there is NO WAY the average American Adult, including Doctors, Lawyers, etc. remembers Math to the extent of High School.Yes, you don't need to know Pre-Calc, but people get so confused with Math.

In this instance, you could collect $50k plus FC costs and any excess proceeds would go to junior lienholders and, once they're paid off, to the previous owner/debtor.
