As for the quantity of smoke, I smoke about an ounce every 2 weeks, which is pretty similar to a pack a day smoker.

Any suggestions on the quantity i should start with, the number of areas i target, and the frequency i hit those marks?

Quantity is certainly a man ove to be made in this place.

Sometimes you will not need a license based on the quantity of deals you do each year, but each state is different.

When buying sizeable or large quantities, I'm curious what your strategy is for negotiating discounts with your material vendors and distributors. 

If the quantity you need is not that high, you can borrow money from a credit union or bank and do the rehab, get those units rented, then do a cash out refinance on the church itself to pay back the personal loan.

If inflation (money supply) continues to increase, or worse, a more rapid decline in the dollar's valuation, where can investors safely invest large quantities of legal capital rapidly? 

Those run 150 to 200 ish and are the next tier down in rents (1500 to 1800 ISH).MFR won't generally be available in any quantity in these areas.

Just now (12 months later) I'm starting to see an increase in the leads to about one every 2 days.It's a slow climb up the rankings that takes a lot of work or a lot of money to hire an SEO Guy and a Content Guy.I just closed my first deal I got off my website yesterday.Direct Mail will get your phone ringing faster and is a matter of quantity you send out (the list has to be good though).Online Marketing is great to have because it's not a One and Done method like direct mail....send out a bunch of letters get some calls and done.

And old corny saying but its to live by "its not about quantity its about quality"..The more deals you close "even if your fee isn't so great" the more marketing dollars you have to build and build...QUALITYAnd this is all my opion and my experience, everyones entitled to their own....
