Quote from @Chris Seveney: Quote from @Jay Hinrichs: Quote from @Chris Seveney: There is no guru or course on the planet that can teach you real estate development in the span of days or weeksSomeone can teach your college level 101 stuff but I would love to see how these courses tell you how to interact with planning and zoning boards, how to negotiate proffers, how to deal with disgruntled neighbors and community members.

(so I hope).I have a whole lot more info regarding my interactions with these institutions and how I've dealt with them if you're interested?

Again, the BiggerPockets store has some books on this topic, or you can learn about it by watching podcasts, reading blogs, and interacting on the forum.

During the short sale process, the buyer does not interact directly with the lender.

Zero interactions on this portal from what I can tell.

The interaction and insights people shared were worth more than $250. 

Every interaction with them has raised red flags. 

The one thing that JWB does well in terms of management is trying to manage my expectations through scripted interaction and condescending comments like "maybe real estate is not a good fit for you”.

query=garage#sear...If you can rent a 2 garage at $450 without spending ~$150k for a garage ADU conversion, no work/risk of the ADU conversion, the lower maintenance/capex, easier eviction, no rent control, less tenant interaction, it will not convert your SFR to rent control, etc, it seems superior to the garage ADU conversion.  

You don't look for distressed, or blue doors or any other BS indicator you just get interacting.
