@Brian Garrett so would his ROI be terrible because youre making the assumption that he's placed a large down payment on the properties or simply because he has built up equity from the properties that he's not leveraging at present?

I was reading a chapter in one of the Bigger Pockets books just last night and Brandon mentions that he works with 'the best real estate agent in town'. 

Heads up they aren’t that easy to get a hold of because there’s so much construction going on in town at the moment.

College towns like Auburn don't function like other places.

Sanford, FL) = 1878 sf, 4/2, built 1935, two storyComp 1 = 600 S.

Have a few peads in my home town have some people I can send to even inspect if I was to get anything under contract just would like to know the proper steps to take beginning this process thank you!

I felt there had been trust built up between us.

Looking for a true Asset Based Lender who with / w/o to loan on fully occupied properties and others with great equity built-in the purchase price?   

or cash.. and scoop the deals when and if that time comes around again. but I think its fair to say 08 to 2012 was a very unique set of circumstances and other than a one horse town or one mill town or one main manufacturing town.. were the mill or plant closes and real estate tumbles.. we just never saw such a wide spread loss of values..
