The Importance of a Great Real Estate Agent: A Personal Paradigm ShiftI got my real estate license a while back, and I always heard people talk about the importance of "bringing value" as an agent or broker.

@Mario Morales - Personally, I would do some research in your target market and search (even it on zillow) for 2-4 family properties and see what agent(s) seem to transact the most in that space.

A FHA 203k Loan is where the purchase price and rehab costs are rolled into a single loan.The downside of using FHA or a FHA 203k is you will need to live there, for a minimum of one year (to satisfy FHA Requirements); AND because you closed personally, you will not have Asset Protection, in the form of closing in the name of a LLC.

I would personally put them in notice just because they never tried to communicate it on the back end of fixing it.

People who have service dogs (or horses, as these are the only 2 service animals) that are genuine have no issue disclosing that on the front end and can answer the 2 questions easily - is the animal necessary for a disability, and what specific tasks has the dog (or horse, if you're getting one of those) been trained to perform? 

More repair costs because their maintenance team somehow "missed" things during the initial turnover.At this point, I genuinely started wondering what exactly the 15% management fee was for.The Bottom LineLook, I get it—REI Nation is a business, and businesses are here to make a profit.

If they've genuinely abandoned, you'll notice their clothing, personal hygiene, and things of value are all gone.

Personally, I love working with distressed properties, especially foreclosures.

I am looking forward to learning from the community and making genuine connections to grow in real estate.

Presumably because the overall majority of BP members invest only and the US and they're smart and well educated and can tell when people are trying to genuinely help them or are motivated by trying to get business from them.2.
