@Ray Loveless, you bet.

Especially for flipping, I bet you can find a diamond in the rough out there. 

Yes, there will be more investors that foolishly lose their money but I bet that there will be a far greater number of people who benefit from the rule.

If I ever buy in the L.A. market you can bet I would hire her again as my agent. 

@Michael J Martinez  I think your smartest bet would be to talk to a couple banks about a HELOC and about a new mortgage.

In our discussion he is ready to sell that house and then he tells me he has 25 properties (I had already seen that on the Tax Assessors site) and he said he would like to sell all of the properties.

Your best bet is to sit down with a loan officer and discuss your plans  - they will be able to tell  exactly what you can and cannot do  - you may also want to consider getting prequalified so you know how much you can buy and what your payments would be - this is especially useful in running your numbers to see if a property will cash flow or not.

Bet you a Coke they can't.Treat this property as if you were buying it off the MLS because that is exactly what you would be doing.  

just a couple of reasons:No one can buy ALL the deals themselves.Many monetization feeds on a highly ranked site (book sales, pro membership, etc) Trust through notoriety can have a high return on investment (see M.I/oceanpointe for negative example)None of these are good or bad in and of themselves.

DFW is a wonderful area and BP is a great site to get all of your questions answered.
