While I certainly do not claim to be intimately familiar with the licensing laws of all locales, I disagree with REI and Ohio.The statutes in the states I have operated did not preclude you from acting independently as a legitimate investor.

Well, iso, I'd have to disagree.

I don't disagree with the power of perception, but I also know my own work ethic.

Maybe someone else can enlighten us both.The MLS is basically the same sort of site, it just gives licensed agents a little more insight - we can see expired/sold/withdrawn etc listings complete with broker comments and pictures, even if those have been taken off of redfin, zillow, etc.I would think you would get more variation based on how the comps are adjusted rather than which site you use, but Anson can jump in and correct me if he disagrees.

Yes you can make a lower offer a turnkey property....however I do disagree with your sentiment above.

@Keith Coleman I disagree with @Jeff Filali about making a website first..

I know there are people who will disagree with me here but so be it.   

I think a lot of people will disagree with my approach on the last part b/c I keep a high amount of money tied up in equity, but It works for my long-term vs. short-term objectives. 

Two items I have to respectfully disagree with @Michael Orf.

And I disagree, renting is a better option.
