Be conservative on your rehab budget, rehab timeline, holding costs, etc.

One that holds a special place in my heart is Tractionby Gino Wickman.

A special committee was formed last year, and was to hold 6 non-public meetings and then send their finalized recommendations to the commissioners in November.

If you're goal is a long term hold, you're almost certainly going to do well even with a market rate deal in any of those states.

I question if they get kick backs or actually hold ownership in this company.

Whereas, if you are holding $1,000 cash flowing property and the markets shift, you likely still have a cash flowing property that can sustain itself, and even help supplement another property that isn't in as great of an equity position. 

It's great to have you with us.. do you think you'll focus more on fix-and-flips or buy-and-holds?

Although it isn't some miraculous contract that will hold a buyer hostage, there can be repercussions to you and/or the agent you eventually earn a commission with.

My Holding Company holds all my LLCs.

You just hold it, keep it occupied and well maintained, and let the years roll by.
