I'm always looking for good R/E conversation over the bar.

Take the e-courses, watch the webinars, read the newsletter and reading the forums will let you learn and hopefully avoid some of the pitfalls. 

I know when you go to the e corp website in Arizona it does not give you the persons name or mailing address.

E income.

But an unsolicited offer for purchase with a back story like you described is a powerful piece.And you have also reported that property on your Schedule E I'm guessing on two consecutive tax returns. 

@Derek E., I've heard about HELOC but I don't fully understand how it functions.

The reason I ask is because I ha e had people not want to deal with new investors. 

It is at Peet's coffee at Vienna (332 Mable Ave E) next one June 3 at 3 pm - 5pm.

I tried a few times and it was uber frustrating i just never went there again.. and being an agent representing a buyer it was painful.. your buyer is e mailing you everyday wanting updates.. listing agent wont communicate becasue they are swamped and have nothing new.. it was very unproductive way to sell inventory.. but we had to remember this was a crisis and banks simply / and servicing or asset managers simply did not have the man power to deal with it all.. 

I can't wait to meet people in the field of R E and in other aspect of Real Estate!
