There is no country on earth that treats their peeps like we do.

It is the BEST MENTORSHIP ON PLANET EARTH.

There is no way on this earth that I would buy a home without title insurance.  

any concept ofdead humans returning or cursed live in half way between earth and hell...

I told him we were only interested if we were able to pick up something relatively inexpensive (our rent payment was crazy high) giving preference to a home with the potential for rental income.He sets up another search and at this point he falls off the face of the earth.

@Dustin Beam - To echo @Russell Brazil's point and chime in on that discussion: If you don't think your agent knows the market, and you don't trust your agent or value their expertise, why on Earth did you hire that particular agent?

Basically, if you have 2 homes on the neighborhood that get investigated several times of the year for illegal dumping, abandoned vehicles, vacant board orders, or high weeds/grass... it's probably a more distressed area.I also walk the street on Google Earth to ensure that I'm not across the street from a metal recycling facility, railroad tracks, waste water treatment center, landfill, trucking warehouse, etc.Another interesting look is to use Google Maps to find all of the Starbucks in town.

Not everyone that walks the face of the earth should be a homeowner, a home of any kind, contrary to some who think they can pawn off a dwelling to anyone that can fog a mirror, make a mark and hand them some money.

If you're not familiar as to setting up a seller financed note, I strongly suggest you sell and invest in what you know.Seller financing puts your equity to work at a higher rate usually than what you would get if you were to invest the cash after taxes, that is not to say the note is a better investment than buying discounted notes.There is no RE deal that pulls the ROI that a discounted note can pull when it is refinanced shortly afterwards at the UPB or even below, no comparison, not a guru ploy on the face of the earth dealing in dirt that can compete with notes......that's why I went to more notes, LOL.But, reality, anytime there are greater potential profits, the greater the competition, the greater the knowledge required and the higher the barrier to entry in that field.

Most people would agree that a human life is sacred and carries a higher value than almost anything else on earth.
