As for me,...I've  chosen steady, boring, cashflow and I chose Cleveland.

There have been occasions where we find that someone has chosen to be less than accurate with the numbers they've put in on the loan application because they didn't realize that we would be verifying not only the property values but the contractors bid as well.

@Dawn Brenengen So on the exam for question number 5 I should have chosen the answer to give the owner of the home reasonable notice?

Find an area where investors are buying and market to that area.3) once you've chosen an area, use listsource.com to get list of high equity properties (30% equity and greater) in your area. 4) use a mailing service like yellowletters.com or click-to-mail to send out your postcards or letters to potential sellers.5) it takes a few months typically, to get the first deal because a lot of people will respond to your follow up rather than the first contact.Obviously, this is just the quick and dirty to get you started.

(not much)I have not chosen the section 8 route as of yet but I may on this one.I also have purposely not gone for the top rental rate.

I too am irked by colleague requests arriving without a formal introduction ... let alone one which help my aging grey matter figure out a the benefit of such a connection.I have chosen to simply ignore the requests until they go away on their own ... but, perhaps that's being a little too passive {honestly, I was trying to see if BP has a built in expiration feature for an unanswered request} and I should join you in exercising the Deny button.So, Hattie, seeing as we hold a view in common ... wanna be my friend :-)

Not for me, but a nice idea.The 'training' begins when they are chosen as the lucky new tenant provided their deposit is in the bank by X.

One issue you may encounter is that the title company the REO asset manager has chosen may not allow same day back to back closings using transactional funding. 

There is so much competition out there, that the good ones aren't just going to be sitting around waiting to be chosen.

I pay my dog sitter this way.My tenants have chosen to make the trip to my bank and deposit right into my account.
