The fats cats are on a free ride...............so be prepared for their greed to cause more havok one day when we least expect it. 

BP is a great networking site etc.. but nothing beats the belly to belly aspect of the business.. pretty hard to just read stuff on line and do it yourself.you need to make those contacts. 

I really got my license for the education more than to become a realtor plus I like the fact that any property I buy in the future for 500-600K  I will get a fat commission check!!!! 

With two properties under your belt, I recommend you making sure your next buy is what they call a "fat pitch" ...in other words, one you can knock out of the park...you're young enough to wait for it.  

If I was getting a sure thing and even if that sure thing didn't happen I got fat EM it's a no brainer versus a friend who wants the property but needs a bank to approve with all these conditions.

The hardwood floor of my whole unit needs to be replaced.It turns out the water is entering from my CMU wall due to the roof scuppers being overwhelmed and the gutters have significant bellies that are not allowing the water to flow freely.

@Dean Bell I was just back for my bachelor party last June but unfortunately no trips planned in the near future.

Appreciate a Big Fat Thumbs Up "Vote" for the post!

Jacked my interest rate up for a big fat lender credit to cover closing costs.Got $8,000 in lender credit.Paid $120/month more, for six months, because of that higher interest rate.Did a VA IRRRL right at the six month mark (lurkers: this is ONLY for VA loans... call 1-800-Marines and serve for 4 years if you want this).Closing costs on the refi were about $2500.So I got $8,000, but was out [ $120 * 6 + $2500 = $3220 ]. 

'BOOKMARK' this on your computer.There is an old Spanish saying ""Only the owner of the horse will make the horse fat" ... with this in mind why would you invest in FL and not near you in Ca?
