It about in line with what I see around my town.The majority of Realtors do not own investment property (2/3) but a decent chunk of them do (1/3)I speak with other agents daily and many of these other agents own at least a few.

Sometimes there's just one, sometimes there are several people, usually you will want to speak to the loan officer in charge of commercial loans.

I would like to speak with a mortgage broker about some financing options for my next small multi family investment property.

It's not easy to sell a property with foundation issues generally speaking.

It seems like if the building burned down I could demo and rebuild a new building on it for less than half of that 1 million amount.Thanks a ton for your answers already, hopefully I will have a property under contract that I need to speak with you about in the near future :)

I haven't sold my existing investment property yet (fingers crossed for a closing next week), so the 45-day identification period hasn't officially started, but I'm trying to formulate my strategy to make sure I make the most of it.What are your best approaches to "buy right" so to speak when you're up against the 1031 clock and battling a competitive market?

Generally speaking; if a Landlord were to agree or intonate, in those jurisdictions where quantum meruit is allowed, either that there would be some compensation against rent for services rendered; or even if a reasonable person would believe that there would be compensation for services rendered, the landlord can be held liable under the theory.There are some defenses in contract against this; such things as merger clauses.

Good to meet you happy to network and speak when avaibale.

I am also considering stopping by to speak with them.

@Das Siva, @Aaron Mercer, @Simon Baker, @Deborah Tucker (can someone tag her I apparently don't have her as a colleague).I might be in Sydney for the latter part of February next year for a few speaking gigs and would love to catch up with everyone.It sure has been a while since I've been back home hehe :)Thanks
