You can click on the 'vote' button if you like someone's post or is helpful, and there are 'awards' to earn on your profile.

Depending on your VA award, you may be able to pick up two properties without having to sell or refinance one.

I had dinner with the 2013 and 2014 award winners last night (who have also won Houston Apartment Association and Texas Apartment Association awards) and discussed what they are doing at their complexes that I can think about or borrow for mine.  

Will somebody give me an award already?

I won awards for my projects when I was a freshman in high school.

More advanced points/awards system a la fatwallet ,although their program is a bit extreme.I also like the idea of highlighting pro messages,either with a small icon,or in a separate forum.Mobile access!

Saves me from having to deal with a broker, the NRA (or whatever the alphabet regs are called), listings that I get 3% on (even though I did 90-100% of the work to get it sold), dealing with sellers who think their house is worth more than it is and blaming you because there house isn't sold because they were stubborn on their asking price, dealing with buyers because you can't find that "perfect" house at their unreasonable price, investors who call you for comps without intending or means to buy the target house let alone a pack of gum, or want deals to assign and walk away because they can't close (happens to other wholesalers, too), or a number of headaches that I would have to take on being a licensed RE agent as well as an investor.Not sure if this helped anyone out, but I was chiming in with my opinion and observance of this long thread (I think this one should get an award).For grins and giggles, I'll be researching more about licensing and brokers in my area and State laws in Florida regarding RE investing.

A couple of the minor prospect groups are: Divorces - People who are divorcing and need to sell either because of a court order or because the party who was awarded the property cannot make the payment.

It can be viewed as a payment agreement to stay in the property.Assuming they rule in your favor, you will only be awarded rent through the last day she is in the property.

In addition to other remedies at law and equity, the tenant may recover damages resulting from noncompliance by the landlord; and upon a finding by the court that the partyagainst whom judgment is rendered was in willful noncompliance with this Article, such willfulnoncompliance is against the public policy of this State and the court may award attorney's fees tobe taxed as part of the costs of court.I know I should probably talk to an attorney, but that's going to cost me a pretty penny.
