I was then afforded tons of referral work re any future nuisance wildlife control work within the clients entire social and family network.

I can tell you that these meetings are like social gatherings for friends, they all know each other and exchange information freely.

Quite frankly there's nowhere to go and socialize with people my own age.

I am tring to obtain the vocabulary.I am working on my mission statement, short-term goals and long term goals.

That said, I am seeking information from other licensed brokers and agents on what you are doing to disclose that you have a real estate license when soliciting to buy investment property with direct mail, squeeze pages, social media, etc.It is license renewal time in our State and continuing education classes are required.

@Marcia Maynard Great mission statement.

We have a bunch of "weekenders" in the area.I mentioned the have-to repairs would be under $5000...mainly repair the soffit and facia on the front side of the home and new gutters all the way around, general clean up and landscaping and a fresh coat of paint outside.To update the inside the estimate is $15K...but it is very liveable as is, ex: the carpet is in good condition...but it's blue, the bathroom is in good shape but fixtures are bright yellow...the home is 80's dated but everything was very well taken care of.My fee is flexible but have it priced so I can cover closing (thought this might help to sell retail) and make roughly $10K...I left some room to negotiate.Suggestions on how and where to market this would be greatly appreciated, Craigslist is only generating tire kickers as is social media

Houston proper is very much hit or miss depending on the actual schools, whereas the surrounding school districts generally have better reputations overall.There are deals to be had in Spring, east of I-45 (Timber Lane & North Spring); west of I-45, north of the Beltway; Spring ISD; Klein ISD; most areas in the Cypress-Fairbanks school district have strong rental returns (Bonhomme); Katy ISD (Bear Creek; Glencairn); Alief; Mission Bend; Missouri City (Quail Valley; Quail Run; Briargate; etc.); Sugar Land (Townewest & Barrington Place); Deer Park; Friendswood; parts of Pasadena, La Porte, & Baytown.Also, a lot of times folks will refer to "Cypress" and "Spring" but actually mean northwest or north Houston, so be mindful of that.In terms of development and appreciation, it's taking place all over, but most heavily west of I-45 North and South.Definitely let us know if you ever have any other specific questions.

I am pursuing a career in social work but I have always had a passion for real estate as a I love maintaining property and doing everything from waterline repairs to framing and dry walling.
