You win as I'm short and WAS extremely fat.

Conceivably you could use a reputable turnkey (yes, we're all sick of this term) company, but you'll pay their fat markup (probably 20-30%) and won't get yields above 8-9%.I will say that once your team is in place, the incremental effort on each new deal is dramatically minimized, as would be expected.

Then, I find that other questions I am interested in asking I prefer to hear the answer in person so I can evaluate their body langauge.

That is what I attempted to do, but the main listing agent looks at us like we are contagious & has a sort of negative jerky body reaction to low cash offers.

What I mean is that, this neighborhood is in the dumps because the community of people living there are in the dumps by mind, body and spirit.

It could simply be that one of the short sale buyers had enough lead time to get the money together.On the other hand, it's annoying to think that someone gets to the front of the line by being dishonest, and every body involved looks the other way.

The kicker to me is that they don't have a HOA or any governing body that meets regularly from what I can tell.

If they dont want to use you then well there is always the aspect that there are other doctors and dentists that might be better suited to take care of your teeth and body. why should they get your business and you not get theres?

You can also do this once you have fat cash with larger properties to like apt buildings.

it is a conflict of interest. they don't care who's in the property as long as they get a body in there. and the investor gets screwed...it makes my blood boil.
