My momma used to say, "God gave you two ears and one mouth, use them in the proportion they were given to you." 

My issue, went through a custody battle with baby momma and The state, I won. 55k later I'm in debt (credit card) up to my eyeballs and I'm struggling.  

I'll go down to my county's surrogate's office and ask to "look at filings for probate cases in the last month."

By keeping the individual's name off the card, I can allow surrogates to use the cards as necessary (for example, when someone unaffiliated with our company is showing/working at a property and someone asks for contact information).

Also- what if your surrogate manager makes a discriminatory comment or innuendo....plan on writing a check for $15/k.

The "guest" caused all sorts of problems, fought with his baby momma all the time which disturbed other tenants etc.  

BPOs are worthless b/c most are done by inexperienced newbies trying to make a few $$, or by unlicensed surrogates of busy agents.

Next check with the county surrogate or whoever handles your probate files to see if a legal rep. has been appointed.

I literally didn't know anything about houses or home ownership.I'm not saying these are the perfect ways to learn about real estate or investing, but it's certainly a great surrogate for those of us that didn't have access to mentors and were just generally poor. 

I bought my Dad a storage facility that operates at a 10 cap on it's cash basis shortly (two months) after that first meeting with Marco's Momma.
