I think my take away is instead of running around like a madman is to send out letters to what I think will be a good list, beef up my website and hold some meetups.

I understand that threads like this are a byproduct of being very active in the market and welcome any feedback that can make our company better. 

Go to meet-ups, build a relationship with a good HML or private lender and the process will be much easier with favorable terms.I haven't use them myself, did a lot research to figure out how they do, I have an old corporation(retail store) with established lines of credit and credit cards already setup, I did apply for a couple more some with same banks I already have a business credit but got a new ones with an zero intro rate to beef up on cash for holiday season. more cash at hand more available to invest and increase profits for us.I am thinking of setting up a new business to start a new venture (Car Dealership,Taco Truck or both in same lot), being in California is no easy for corporations since there are a lot of fees and taxes for some corporations.

If there really is a do not mail list can someone tell the grocery store I am on it so they stop stuffing my mailbox with 40-year old circulars on sales of ground beef?

Appreciation for us has always been a byproduct of finding "distressed" sellers who sold at 20-30% below market price for no good reason other than rush, so that I would say is secondary 😅

I really am amazed at how some marketer can convince an adult that real estate is like following grandma's recipe for beef stew.

Comparatively, trailing 12-month sales volume peaked in the second quarter of 2022 at $140 billion, but has since fallen close to 60% from the recent highs.This slowdown highlights the lingering impacts of rising interest rates and the commensurate uncertainty around asset pricing as rent growth has begun to decelerate.However, private capital remains at the forefront of buying activity, fueled by a steady tide of fresh entrants to the sector and existing operators' efforts to beef up their portfolios.

I am a structural engineer for my W2 job and it is actually insane how beefed up beach home designs are nowadays.

For best pho or shaken beef go to Litle Saigon.

I believe the neighbor has some beef with the city, and is trying to use this issue to create a problem for the city, my friend is just the unlucky guy who gets to be collateral damage.The small town utility department doesn't have record drawings of the laterals, and they are not being too helpful.
