My name is Ryan Young and I am a licensed Realtor® in San Antonio, TX.

My wife and I have been renting in the area for 6 months. (subletting for cheap)

But now we both have jobs and we figure its time for our own space. We looked around and found a a place we love that rents for $1,375...

The reality is tenants drive me crazy doing this part time and if I did it full time I think I'd go insane!!

I've been managing the insurance policy renewal for my 4-unit HOA in San Francisco since 2005.

When I do have a flip going on though, I do put insane hours in to try and get it remodeled as soon as possible.

I know this probably sounds insane, but I cannot get a loan.

I did have one home that I sold in San Antonio and another home that I refinanced.I completed construction of two homes here in Utah and have been negotiating on several offers on the one home.

This seems INSANE to me!

That tells me that the buyer is in fantasy land.The odds of finding that deal and closing it and me getting paid is slim to none.Real brokers and agents aren't in the charity business.You might get a new agent to help a new investor and that can be the blind leading the blind.So is the buyer serious and realistic for the market is the key.There is a difference between a loser deal,marginal,good,great,and insane deal.If as an investor you can get into a good to great deal for an area you are realistic.If you are looking for an insane deal shotgunning all kinds of unrealistic offers you are not only wasting the broker/agents time but also yours as well.So do not always blame the broker/agent for not getting the deal you want.It could be you are unrealistic in your goals for the area.If investors are gobbling up properties at 50k and you want at 30k then you need to change to an area to find 30k properties or come up closer to 50k to compete.

Wow, this is insane.
