(disclaimer: I do not play an attorney on TV and definitely not in real life) One thing I see that makes having a license easier is having the MLS to pull comps and value properties.

Tenant upstairs let me know she saw him carrying out a tv and yelling. 

No matter what TV says, this is not a get rich quick avenue. 

They are preying on rookies that watch too many tv shows and selling them on made-up ARV's.If you have never bought MF be careful with the numbers they give you. 

It actually negatively impacted my social life because I hate going to the same stupid social events where people talk about mundane things like sports or reality TV.

I see the TV shows, and the flippers in CA seem to be happy making $50-75,000 on flips with the ARV over $1,000,000.

So we have some experience with real estate, none with flipping except for the TV shows for which I now have no time for. 

Whatever you do, try try try to keep in mind that this is not your personal residence and not a TV design show.

We will be self-financed, developing property that is zoned "by-right" for the intended use, using public water/individual septic tanks, constructing DOT spec roadways, installing concrete sidewalks and offering high-speed cable TV and internet service.

It meant no TV or going out with friends and no vacations for nearly 18 months (I rehabbed 7 units).
