It's worth going if you've never been to one before, but like I said, leave the credit cards at home.Enjoy the pumped up, enthusiastic atmosphere they'll provide, but instead of signing up for a coaching program try a different mission: Collect business cards or contact information for at least 5 people close to you (where it would be convenient for both of you to get together every 2-4 weeks), who are either at your level or one notch above.Then after the event, make it your mission to have coffee/tea/whatever with each of those people, either individually or as a group.

It's the same job except the wholesaler is showing up to the gun fight with a knife.

In fact, this flaw is so obvious, it blows my mind that so many appraisers stick to their guns and profess their adjustments have 1) been extracted from market data and 2) they are reliable.

By jumping the gun you run the risk of angry tenants that may cause you more damage and issues with your property plus legal fees in the name of them being a few days late.

Seller's end up being responsible for your malfeasance so while it may be "off the books", the liability remains to some extent no matter how your purchase and sale agreement is structured with them.You came out guns blazing against my statement, without clarifying your position, until I poked holes in your comparison between your position and that of the OP.

Its not a negotiation and its not time to be friends...its what I call "time to come to Jesus" meeting.....In my experience I can achieve more success with being a hard *** in a respectful and professional way than I can by going in "guns blazing" right off the bat.

Maybe not.I am sticking to my guns and will be fine no matter what happens.

Odds are all the seller will do is get a handyman to get up on that roof and diddle around with his caulking gun loaded with roofing cement among the existing shingles.

The one main difference that I see is that the most experienced sponsors have a very enthusiastic investor base that they have accumulated over many years.

I understand the worst case w the 6 month relocation fee etc. and the tenants are probably gunning for that.Also whats going for my side as the landlord is all these 3 tenants on the 2nd floor are seasonal, 3 month leases which all end Apr 30th anyways, and its an owner occupied house, i occupy 1 of the rooms.
