:mrgreen: In order to be as transparent as possible I feel it's important to express my goals for joining this forum.

I appreciate it.The law says "A person may not make or knowingly allow a telephonic sales call to be made if such call involves an automated system for the selection or dialing of telephone numbers or the playing of a recorded message when a connection is completed to a number called without the prior express written consent of the called party."

You had many points and it's great that you expressed it all do you really think all these ulterior motives are true?

If you look up reviews on Amazon for these type of books each one invariably will have an American Express review ("I can't live my life without it!")

Yes Well I met the Newbies today for lunch at the Golden Arches trying to express my Negative thoughts and also trying to recall my days starting out .

If you are nice they will remember starting out and will want to help and will be candid about the price etc.If the price is too high and you made the mistake simply acknowledge that with the seller and apologize and ask for a price change.The outside appeal of the property is number one when putting out for listing syndication.Do not use a used listing sign as they fade over time.Buyers might think it's been on the market a long time.Instead have a brand new listing sign that pop with fresh color and add your star burst with the selling features on each side that ERA provides.Even if there is no activity on the listing do not get scared.Many times agents don't communicate with sellers for fear of hostility or rejection.Meanwhile the seller is pulling there hair out feeling helpless.Instead call them immediately and talk about the next step in your plan of action as a team to get the property sold.You might have to meet with them a few times but they will come around eventually after their emotions settle down.The property could look awesome on the inside but a dump for curb appeal.The outside needs to invite them in to stand a chance.You need to know if your current market is flat,declining,improving and by what percentage each month.You need to know average days on the market.You need to know any foreclosure notices coming up for the area.You can express to the seller that if these properties foreclose or get listed as a short sale it could impact selling prices and appraisals for the buyer.So "time is of the essence to get this property sold" so we need a reduction.WHY is the seller selling?

This is why Yield is expressed as a percentage per year.

I'm almost at 10 months of planning and structuring.Initially I had a bank interested in working with me; however, when my father expressed interest, a few weeks ago, I began exploring getting a loan from him instead.
