They have more skin in the game then you do.Make sure you get clear title.

Then you are 'in the game' so to speak.

Grateful to be part of this amazing community of go-getters and game-changers.

One of my favorite authors, Nicholas Nassim Taleb, sold me on the concept of Skin in the Game and holding all pundits accountable for prior predictions, myself included. 

That is the thing about the game we are playing....every job is diferent and you can count on absolutely nothing.

Most agents, I can tell you from experience, will not spend too much time on you since your so fairly new and at your purchase price your not a big fish so they will tend to put you on the back burner since heir return is not going to be a game changer.

This can be a game-changer for fix-and-flips, buy-and-hold investments, or new development projects.For lenders, it can mean earning higher returns, often in the range of 8-12%, backed by the property itself.

Quote from @Ava Petruso: New to investing but been in the real estate game for 8 years as a high volume realtor.

It's a numbers game. 

I own a property management company and am looking to get into the investment game too and to meet people on a similar path.
