Just struggling to find any good leads with not much access to mls and other paid services.

It's easy to cheerlead and harder to actually DO the work.

Perform the same task in each app to ensure a fair comparison.Load a property with pictures and details.Market that property.See what your marketing looks like from the public's perspective.Submit a fake application to see how easy the process is.Run a credit/screening report on yourself.Enter a maintenance request, assign a vendor, and attach a fake invoice.Enter charges to the tenant's ledger.Enter recurring charges and automatic late fees.Sign documents electronically.Run owner reports.After testing a few apps, one should clearly stand out.

There has been a squatter living in it for about 3 years, that refuses access to anyone that I have sent out there to assess the property.Safeguard personnel stopped communication with me last year. 

The license (if you aren't going to use it to sell) is worth it for access to the MLS and access to dumps the first day they on the market.

If you have three people renting together, combine their incomes into one to see if it meets the 3x requirement.However, nothing is that easy.

In Texas we can go inactive, so no Broker, no selling, no MLS access,  but you still have to keep up your education CE hours and such. 

Pro Tip: Use a simple landing page to promote your lead magnet, making it easy for sellers to download it in exchange for their contact information.Why It Works:Providing value upfront builds trust and gets motivated sellers into your pipeline faster.2.

Agreed mate,I'm all about taking personal responsibility and I have been swindled many times in a similar fashion like many feel on this thread.It seems like these investors including myself in other instances get negligent and don't read between the lines.Especially after trust and a relationship have been established, we become gullible and don't second guess or question.Maybe it's greed for some but in my instance it wasn't.Just innocent and trusting stupidity (No, I'm never a victim as that is ******** mentality in my book).I had some spare $$$ and wanted to diversify in other assets through folks I considered friends and trustworthy business partners.Didn't even think twice to look things over.Looking back, it all makes sense now but it's easy being a general after the battle heheI only blame myself here...I mentioned in the thread further above that I lost to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars.Again, it is what it is and it's a lesson.Only myself to blame and have always taken the high road in such instances.As much as I'd like to fight for justice and go down the legal path, it just isn't worth the time and emotion.Upwards and onwards.Become better and make more than you have lost.Each to their own and that's just my personal "modus operandi"

It's not some MLM, pyramid type gig you can just experiment with attempting to make quick or easy money.
