There are idiots in every aspect of this business and some all stars too. 

And of course the wholesaler they don't give a crap they are not out anything maybe the whopping 100 bucks hey gave as a EM deposit.Real Estate in my mind is a real business and capital intensive and if your going to play the game you should get some capital behind you in some form so you can do deals without having to have all the stars align.Wholesalers in our market BUY the property.. our markets too hot that only an absolutely uneducated seller would fall for a option to purchase when they could just list and sell and close in 30 days for all cash to a bona fide purchaser...

FB has made their second trek through Rochester, NY in the last year.

What would be the purpose of listing a home and just "wishing on a star" with some random list price that the home would sell?

Finally got the stars all lined up to leap off the cliff and do something and now I'm getting anxious about the financing and questioning myself over and over again.I'm trying to stay with what I'm comfortable with at first so I can build more experience before adding different twists to the mix.

twittwer is my bff... but that wasn't always the case. when my tweets were just "looking for a new tax lien for the month of May." nothing happened. the key to twitter is to ask questions. just like Joshua said... find like-minded people. use search.twitter.com and type in something like "reo investing" and people who are talking about it right then will pop up. engage with them in conversation. also, prune your followers. if a pron star is following you, chances are it is a spam account. delete them so real twitter users will be encouraged to follow you. hope that helps!

Josh, why can't you decide who makes good posts and give them an "At-a-boy" a star, a point, what ever you like and leave it at that?

I've been following their site for a few months now with attention to the newer listings (open house) and I tend to see low COC's in 1-2 star neighborhoods.

If a lender goes to their supervisors and says it is ok, I would put it in writing so that you are cover in the event that the stars align and someone checks up on you.
