Instead of calling my agent to call about each property I call the listing agent directly to get some quick information.I have recently encountered multiple agents that I speak to and when I disclose that I would like to view the property with my agent they immedetly stop responding to my txt/email and tell me to have my agent contact them! 

I have yet to hear one instance where this was a problem or could not be done, or encountered a lender calling the note due.

And maybe you don't like the sound of "Buyer's Agent," but if you want the inside scoop with REO properties in the Pittsburgh area, you are going to need to speak with myself, or one of the other few agents who are willing to go through the brain damage that you will certainly encounter. the trick is having somebody who knows the ropes be there, and explain the process to you.

It has got some more turbulence to encounter!

I have experienced that from many of the people I have encountered with NRU as well.

He could just be blowing smoke in my face to distract me from my goal of financial independence, but I thought I'd throw this out to the forum.Has anyone else encountered this lately?

(do not contract a sale or rent to tenants if everything isn't looking right)Once you have done your first flight the next will be easier and so on.Just don't quit learning.And because you have had a scare don't quit learn from it so you won't encounter the same situation again.

If your prospect encounters you by email or direct mail marketing, your words are all he or she can be influenced by.

Is this something you have encountered or am I paranoid?

Other investors will encounter lower expenses, others, higher, and others will hit your 50% mark.
