This is probably a weak question, but I'm curious as to what people's thoughts are one dress code when networking.

After looking into the seller’s bank deposits, I discovered that half of the tenants were chronically behind, some of them many months.

It’s also worth noting that before making any partnership official and sealed by print/law, you should do a couple deals first and see how you work together and play off each other’s strengths and weaknesses.

sorry cant spell to well but i understand and i work long hours now so hard work isnt the problem but my company would like to work with the bulk home buyers other then just one home at a time and we do work in are area but its hard like you said to get deals so we have started everywhere we do have homes in TN,OH,IN,AR,AL,MI,and so on and we are ready to work harder and again sorry for my spelling to tell the truth that is my weak point

and if someone's that weak-mineded to let someone else(let alone on the internet) discourage them with mere words - don't you think they should keep their day job???

The weak brokers and agents might be thinned from the herds with some automation but that can be said about ANY BUSINESS in the world.The top 20% in any field are in demand and tend to have the highest incomes.

Markets like Dallas, Atlanta and Phoenix have more job and population growth but they are weak for cash flow.

It’s not a game for the weak.

You have to be honest with yourself when planning for that and know your strengths and weaknesses. 

Target size strip malls, or office space, or NNN, or Pads, or etc...Or are you talking about things like a stand alone building with a hair salon, or similar in it along side of a major road.[2] What can you afford to do Down-payment-wise, in an MMA maybe only a 7/11 strip mall, in a medium sized area maybe a larger bite of the chocolate bar than the 7/11 mall.[3] Do you want partners on deals, (same on all, different on some), must you have partners on deals (loan qualifications, personal weak spots, etc...)[4] How will you swing the bat at financing; do you qualify for the financing your deals will need, will you need others to help you qualify, do you now these people vs risking someone who will make your life miserable and you will hate working with (an unfortunate situation). [5] Do you want to work government handout money for fix up real estate, is there any that looks profitable right now.[6] How well do you know commercial real estate "Stuff"; such as can you identify a 400 amp service panel from an 800 amp service panel, can you identify an electrical transformer that you own from those owned by the utility, what is a plenum, does your building have them, what are those big red pipes with wheel handles on them, hidden behind the bushes (who do they belong to), how long does asphalt last in a commercial lot, and etc...Good Luck!
