Don't walk away.......RUN

I think if you are willing to get out there and just be "you", you will find that the world of real estate is a pretty accepting place, and under this big tent you will find people from every walk of life - introverts and extroverts alike.

Nothing beats doing the legwork yourself, though, and walk around looking at houses.

But if you are communicating verbally, at least you can both walk through the logic of the offer with the listing agent....and show the listing agent that you respect their time by not wasting it. 

So if you find an investor for the deal now and six months later something has changed, typically you could walk from the deal if you do not agree to an extension etc.Send me a PM as I may be interested in learning more About the deal as well

Next I plan to try to find a contractor to walk the property with me in an effort to narrow it down!

I can normally accept these but on one occasion had to walk away from the deal.

On auction day investors gather at the house, walk through it one more time and then the house is auctioned off to the highest bidder.

And definitely walk the property.  

I did a cosmetic fix on it and walked away with a little under $30k (before tax), as a comparison.
