I saw many mentors and the webinars they're running and mostly seems to me like pure marketing with big promises.I want to learn from a to z, starting the fundamentals and the step by step process .

Most of the responses telling you to go one way or the other are purely gut or emotional in nature.

@Charles East we had a home with a keypad and renter removed and took the back part that holds the batteries.

As of right now, we are 13 days away from knowing how many people are late on their April 1 mortgage payments (it's "due" on the 1st, but not "late" until the 15th).Something fairly big from Quicken, the #1 lender in the nation by volume, should be hitting the press within a day or two.http://www.mortgagenewsdaily.com/channels/pipelinepress/04022020-jobless-claims-record.aspxMortgage News Daily.April 2nd, 2020NewRez is suspending new Best Efforts locks through April 15 [...]In a temporary shift toward purely Conventional lending, and an eye on the future, wholesaler JMAC temporarily suspended new submissions and funding on FHA, VA and USDA (including Manhattan and Laguna Jumbo loan programs) [...]loanDepot told its brokers that, “In an effort to guard against extraordinary market fluctuation, loanDepot has imposed credit restrictions on Government Programs (FHA & VA) and temporarily suspended the TX 50(a)(6) Program.

There are some good reasons behind this perception as much any distances traveled by bus above say just 3-4 miles can have significant absolute deviation (traffic delays appear quite evenly spread across the short distance from these towns, not just "getting stuck in front of tunnel")That said much of Union City/Weehawken are impressively close to Midtown Manhattan from a pure distance perspective (within 3-4 miles) and most of Jersey City except Downtown can't hold a candle to their commute times to there in particular. 

I have to add other tech to my stack to achieve pure PM features: Trello for work orders, Dotloop for apps and lease signing, Rentlinx for listing syndication.
