That's why it's nice when you own several units because then it doesn't sting quite as much when something does pop up which inevitably does.

Google the addresses to see if any foreclosure notices pop up.

I think the red roses in front give it a nice pop of color.I guess I was worried about some kid thinking "ooooh pretty...me GRAB!!!"

I see Greenville/Spartanburg pop up here quite a bit so I'm sure there's a REIA in your area.

The neighbor popped home for lunch & said, "Is all that trash?"

Funny, I checked to see what definitions popped up online and there's a whole debate about this same sight-vs-site thing on merriam-webster.com.And just to geek out even more, here's a brief explainer I found on The Grammarphobia Blog:Out of sight!

I'll just be careful if I do, as I'm alone here in Boston.I'd love to rental that Brookline Village condo that keeps popping up in our discussions, but it's obviously for sale rather than for rent, but it sounds nice and right in the range I'm looking for.

I then looked up the owners address and it popped up on a FSBO website and some other Real Estate sites.

If you wanted to go the extra mile, you could also look in the probate records and see if anything pops up under the old owner's name and then send a direct letter to any heir.

It's not really the agents choice on whether they can accept the proposition it's the head brokers unless they are with a flat fee company where the amount paid initially would cover their fee to the broker.I just think to TRUST that an investor is going to pay you the commission after a deal is done and has the property is very high risk.Anything goes wrong and you will be the first one getting the shaft and chasing the money wasting time and energy.If I was the broker or agent I would try to line up as many investor buyers doing sub 2 and not accept such a position.As always parties with different interests will align themselves different ways.It's almost similar in commercial real estate leasing in that as a broker you want to try to extract as much commission upfront.The longer your payments are spread out in the lease the more chance of the business going under especially a mom and pop operation.If I had the investor buying hat on I would probably try a similar strategy.This is why investors like off market deals because they can isolate the seller and extract the best price and terms.When many buyers are competing for the same deal the pool of competing buyers lose leverage to the seller.
