You can double your pipeline through the increase in man power, leverage your experience as agents, serve your clients more effectively through speicializtion, be active investors, and limit your risks at the same time.I have help create six partnerships such as the above and have written opinions from several attorneys that this is the way to go in terms of the reduction of potential risk.

I was worried it was a cost on top of things, but it seems to be just the bill itself, and I'm not arguing it.While I'm not disputing all the charges for moving out, some of them just seem over the top.I am especially not happy about the condition she's allowed the home to get into because she was not hiring maintenance to fix things we were paying for.Can we argue a service we did not receive in terms of payment?

Kevin,My first property (also pre-BP days) was very similar to yours in terms of suckiness.

One of the things that I did notice is the area was depressed and there was not much in terms of jobs to keep young people around or even maintain a reasonable life style.

A report out of Atlanta from The Make-Believe Group, an independent third party news monitoring firm, says that Jerry Springer actually just passed Rush Limbaugh in terms of accuracy in news reporting.

One more thing that I would like to correct: I want to sell my home but I am not "forced" to sell it quickly.I also never said that I based my price solely on the input that I received from the RE agents.I am not offended in any way by your input but I want to make sure that we are all on the same page in terms of the facts.Thank you Again

Bienes,Your comment regarding "but 2 months rent sounds a bit extreme to me"... is missing this point...If you give tenants any opportunity to easily break a lease they will... and you are the one who will end up paying for it in terms of vacancies and high turnover expenses.Protect yourself at all costs and don't go soft on tenants... this is your business, you count on that "booked" income stream to run your business, don't let someone off the hook easily.Best of luck!

I wanted to ask the short sale investors and negotiators what they've been experiencing in terms of short sale approval timeframes lately?

You need to think in terms of both: a percentage return on the cash you have in deal and a minimum net profit on the deal.

I dont usually see much in terms of vacancy unless we cause it by redoing a unit for a month.Some people are talking about a follow up call.
