BTW, what sport do you play?

Now many schools start before Labor Day and certain activities start even before the school starts like football practice, band practice, and other sports and activities. 

Tax Sales are like Sports (e.g., Basketball, Football, Soccer, Tennis, etc.). 

I grew up in action and active sports and have spent a whole lot of time around boating and the water.

I always hear/read that real estate investing is a team sport and I agree.

-Sports Memorabilia: you can decorate the property with sports jerseys, framed autographs, or posters of local college teams or famous athletes.

I graduated from Florida State in 2013 with my first degree in sport management.

Don't cry. it's a contact sport. get a helmet.Please let me know if this is what a lot of Realtors are seeing from potential investors, and perhaps some help on the investor's side is what they find most helpful about having a good realtor on their team, and hopefully it's more than just the necessary evil to write up a contract. lol. happy investing folks!
