$ well spent to have a 3rd party walk the house and choose colors and theming for the house.

Overarching themes and points will include: evaluate the sponsor to make sure they have experience and are good stewards of investors' money, evaluate the deal to make sure it's in a growing market and the numbers are based in reality, and try to avoid a feeling of FOMO - there will always be another deal.It's a big topic which is too complicated to really capture in a BP post.

Read them all find out the common themes and write down your specific questions.

In a recent podcast that interviewed Brandon Turner that I heard, if you listen in between the lines, you’ll discover even he is having enormous challenges with his apartment building in Cincinnati.It’s likely why he’s more excited about his mobile home parks and syndication deals now.It’s a common theme through the Midwest,I think.Don’t just talk to brokers and local stake holders with vested interests...Speak to investors who have actually risked capital.They’ll tell you the cold hard truth about investing in the snow belt.

There's clearly a theme here with the realtors who have addressed the part of your question regarding using multiple agents , but I wanted to share a bit about how I found my agent and why he was such a good fit for my first and future investment purchases.I'd kicked around the idea of buying rental property for a couple years, occasionally considering it as something smart to do.After dabbling in the stock market for about six months with some unexpected success, I started obsessing about getting my first property.

I was speaking in generalities, given the post being discussed and the greater theme of it all does not lend to an in-depth discussion as to the finer functions and mechanics of all potential investment strategies and their case law to support or detract.And as this has fallen down a rabbit hole of details I will add, a LO is better understood in the more accurate language of Lease WITH Option. 

What I'm still fuzzy on is the language referring to the 10 year period of suspension.

If the buying agent helped or had knowledge of someone intentionally breaking the lock to prevent showings, then this could lead to a $15k fine, suspension or revocation of license.

Hi all,I can't help but notice that everywhere I research, I come across this theme of several markets across the country being overheated.

Our theme is "SEEK TO SERVE".
