That builds your influence and your money.

I have read: "Think and Grow Rich" by Napolean Hill, "How to Win Friends and Influence People," by Dale Carnegie, "Made in America" by Sam Walton, "American Sniper" by Chris Kyle, "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu and currently reading "Rich Dad, Poor Dad," "The Snowball: Warren Buffet and The Business of Life" by Alice Shroeder.

Some don't take the time to find out what the local rental market is like but others apply a uniform rent based on square footage and not taking into account other market influences such as location or amenities.So it pays to ask specific questions about experience, knowledge, licensing, training, and simply to find out if the Realtor is someone you can work with in an atmosphere of mutual respect.

You can buy 10 4 unit buildings using government sponsored 30 year fixed rate loans at 4 % or 4 10 units at 20 year variable rate loans at 5%.Having said that, if it were me, I would not let that influence me much.

My sole advice I can offer to new home buyers like myself is if you feel rushed to make a deal on a home just stop walk away and seriously think about the decision in a quite place without any outside influences on your choice.
