Holtonwise.com- James Wise is on here quite a bit and he provides a lot of exposure to the Cleveland market.

Speaking directly to borrowers is something I've left to my licensed servicer because of the exposure risk there.

That way you maximize exposure.

I seem to be running into an issue with notes given my current available capital and unwillingness to create substantial exposure to a single asset.

You are right most leveraged ETFs have daily rebalances to maintain equal leverage over the intended investment time-frame, but that doesn't really have any effect on what the value of the ETF is, it's simply adding exposure (or debt) when NAV increases and reducing exposure when it decreases.

On the one hand zillow is adding mls listings like you say on the other had there is a big back lash from the NAR calling this the death of realtors.Zillow/Trulia agents like yourself having lost list hub a major source of feeds in the short term will have less exposure for their advertising dollars This is and will be an ongoing court battle for years both sides will not go down easy@Jay Thompson

I have a house under contract that has sheathing rot (underneath asbestos siding) due to an improperly built room addition that left exposure to moisture.

I personally don’t like the exposure of 30 debt and paying 80% of my mortgage payment in profits for the bank. 15 year notes tend to be about 50/50 for a while in terms of principle and interest.

Net profit $28k.I happen to love condos/townhomes because I am not responsible for exterior items such as roof, siding, landscaping, etc. they also require very minimal investments and minimal risk exposure.

The price  may be cheaper, but the cost much higher with less exposure and bad showings :) A quality flat fee model would be hard to achieve!
