I'd say that from what I've seen (both from some data mining and from pure empirical evidence), your myth vs reality points are right on.I certainly have data to support the fact that several institutional buyers (and I use that term lightly -- many are just large private equity funds that most people probably wouldn't call "institutions") are buying up to 200+ properties per month in my metro area (which is a large area, btw).We've found about 100 cash buyers who have purchased 20+ properties in our metro area in the past 12 months, and I'm guessing (I don't have the data in front of me) about 10% of them have purchased at least 100 properties in the past 12 months.To you second point, yes, many of them are new buyers in the area, and the larger ones are brand new to the area in the past 12 months.

Problem solved.My turnover costs were general very low and about the same each time ... clean the carpets and paint at least one wall to give the place a fresh smell.I stopped doing lease only back in the 1990s because of the tremendous success of the lease-option concept.I found there to far more advantages to the lease-option than disadvantages.

Does California also say the bank has to stop foreclosure sale while bank looks at brand new higher offers?

The unit has brand new cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances - which I was able to get for a decent price.

If they have fresh paint and open/close the way they should, you just bought yourself another 5 years for a fraction of the cost.

(actually all of Texas) Those agents who would like to brand their own business and keep 100% of their commissions with a flat monthly fee.

Allure seems to be the brand people prefer and a thickness between 3mm to 4mm.

Branding is not what we think it is, it's what the consumer (homeowner) says it is - and it takes considerable time and money to imprint our brands in the minds of the consumer.

But I do know quite a bit about establishing a brand - and my guess is that your brand is a big zero in your market.

I had one guy say Il get you an offer standing in front of my unit when I was finishing hanging a brand new garage door on a 3 unit I own.
