Even if it was an top notch program and had great support and ongoing coaching with experienced people that would give abundant 1 on 1 time it still is pretty expensive.If the product wasn't that good and they didn't follow what they did learn then it was a big waste of money.

(for the most part) I have a great family...you would LOVE to rent to me..but...I don't have a pool, nor do I know a darn thing about the upkeep...All I know about the pool is..I love to see my wife next to it..and I like to swim naked...Outside of that...I have no idea about how to keep it rolling...And this is coming from a guy that is or would be a TOP NOTCH renter...I'd rather pay an extra $100 a month as a renter to know it's taken care of..

I've offered incredibly competitive commission rates, full staging (my own man hours), top notch marketing, etc and subsequently raised prices in our suburban area (repeated comments from appraisers and the community).

Hey guys - A good friend of mine is looking for recommendations for a top-notch real estate attorney in the Los Angeles area.  

in the house that just got new cabinets in the kitchen, i noticed that there had been a small leak in the plumbing under the kitchen sink. it had started to swell up the particle board in a few places so i came up with an idea.i measured and cut a 1/2" plywood and notched it for the pipes. then i slipped it into place and anything that spills and leaks will ruin the plywood first, not the actual cabinet.will do that to all rentals from now on.

Top notch property management is the single biggest determinant of whether your investment will succeed over time.

FSBO's happen all the time.. you simply take your contract that you can buy at the store.. fill it out   its fill in the blanks and go hand it to an escrow officer open escrow and they will do the rest.If your getting an appraisal means usually your getting a loan.. your lender will coordinate with the escrow officer.things you should do though1. get a full home inspection done that you pay for. and then negotiate any items that you deem necessary to be fixed.2. make sure you run the comps accurately.. many FSBO's are over priced by sellers that think THEIR property is special.  3. when you get the preliminary title report make an appointment with the escrow officer and have them walk you through it line by line.. so you fully understand what the state of your title is.. if this is lot and block subdivision stuff it should be pretty tidy.. also the lender will need tax's paid and be in first position so if there are any liens etc those will get handled by the title company out of the sellers proceeds.4. do not need agent to meet apprasiser and many frown on that these days lest the agents are steering the values.. although as @Kiersten Vance mentioned a top notch agent will have supporting documentation to support the listed price or the sales price.. to assist the appraiser. 5.

He and his staff (especially Alexandria) are top notch!
