They put alot of time, money and effort into getting those deals.

My efforts to license my naming rights will be an uphill battle because of extremely low traffic counts. 

Are you by a high turnover / high demand place like a university where you can rent by the room (increase effort, but higher profits)? 

It will also take more time and effort (weekly) to manage this type of building.

It could be considered fraud if you were to do this in an effort to deceive the lender.

Don't care if today's commission is small, if you add up all checks from all the deals we will do, it will be worth my time and effort!

I think everyone here genuinely wants to help.

I used to… But over the last 3 years or so too many people show up to bid… Not that I can’t handle the competition, but these people would show up and just pay stupid prices for the houses…It just got to a point where the time chasing the houses and going to the sales just to watch them cancel or for someone to pay $20k more than I was willing to was just not worth the effort…In the good ol days… I could show up and on a good day 0-3 people would be there to bid… Last I went, they were attracting crowds of 50 or more people… In addition, with all the investors, foreclosure help services, realtors, loan officers, and attorneys marketing to people in foreclosure, many never make it to the steps…I may go again soon just to see what it is like today… My guess is that not as many people go now as lender workouts and short sales have became so popular.

I long ago gave up on LI, and have been focusing my efforts out-of-state, in low-tax, affordable areas, with low barriers-to-entry to get in on The Game.

but in my mind well worth the time and effort..or lack of effort.
