Expect delays even after the government reopens due to the lack-log in 4506 requests submitted during the shutdown.Government programs, such as FHA, VA and USDA loans, which require numerous documents, will be delayed.

I feel like I need to get my feet wet in my own back yard first.

Just a thought on how to get your feet wet.

I can easily give proof of funds and point to the numerous houses we've closed with all cash to assuage concerns.

There are a few people that can dive right in with the sharks but most people need to just get their feet wet first.

The house across from me just became vacant no activity in the last two weeks 3br 2ba the prior tenants says the owner wouldn't repair the damages so they move out after 10yrs I recently became a licensed agent for C....

Scott , of note here may be that all our properties are pretty wet on their own and are on septic so no problem with the grass growing in the first place.

With all that said, I'm a hands on learner so I'm looking to get my feet wet!

Looking for any advice, mentors and frankly people to network/do deals with and get my feet wet.

@Elisha KellerMistakes are too numerous to remember.
