The problem is everyone knows a little about 1031 exchanges but there don't seem to be common knowledge when discussing the implications.

I'm looking to expand my knowledge here.Thanks,Ryan

I always believe “it doesn’t matter how knowledgeable or smart you are, there is always some body smarter than you …”Love to hear from you guys.Best Regards,Frank in Houston, TX :cap:

* Hotels/Motels – With our industry knowledge and expertise, we feel we understand the non-flagged world of hotels and motels better than most lenders.

There seems to be a lot of talent on this site and they all seems ready to share the knowledge.

They should be able to give you some information.The painting thing may not link you with people that have Real Estate Investing knowledge.

The amountof knowledge here is staggering.The place to start is by reading.

Glad to have another knowledgable mortgage professional on the board.

Flat fees will become more commonplace.Most members of the general public have a hard time believing that it should cost more to sell a $140,000 property than a $150,000 property than a $160,000 property, etc.If you offer services such as brochures or have superior knowledge due to your paid demographics that clients see a value in then you will be able to command higher fees in a open marketplace.Like most professions, the Realtors will try to protect and preserve their domain, but I believe we have been seeing this changing slowly for awhile now and that change is starting to accelerate.

I define a bird dog as someone who has knowledge of a deal but has no real risk.
