Another point to make is, that by being an example of treating all people respectfully and fairly (even those I disagree with) may inspire others to re-examine and change their own views.

Bill's very detailed examination of the foreclosure process may seem like more information than is neccessary to invest in notes, but it is not!

In your situation, I would recommend that you examine yourself and your approach to renting.

I test the electric for grounding, and examine the main breaker panel for updates.

LOL, got a story;Examined a Ag bank in Arkansas and a guy had a high concentration ($$$) of loans in cattle.

I do not want to be a Realtor as a career or participate in transactions in which I am not either the buyer of the seller.My objectives for obtaining the real estate license are:1) To get access to the MLS listings2) To be able to view the inside of properties on my own without having to coordinate with a realtor.3) To be able to take my time in traveling to and examining properties in search for the best deals without having to be concerned that my realtor will only make $8 an hour after we look at 75 properties and I buy only one 50k townhouse.4) To save the 2.5% commission that I would normally pay to the realtor.

A change in management can cut you off, one loan officer that you usually use can get suspended or fired and his portfolio will be reviewed, cutting off his borrowers until the smoke clears, a bad or poor rating on an examination will usually cause an internal loan review and limit amounts or types of loans, and all of these types of issues will go totally unknown to the public as confidential bank information.So, when can they cut you off?
