I think it was from James Wise... please correct me if you recognize it and it’s someone else’s system.

I recently took an out-of-town client out to look at 8- to 20-unit properties but instead of calculating the cap rate based on the asking price, we calculated the purchase price that would give my buyer an acceptable cap based on her own projections and interests.

When I get a new client, I will inspect, take pictures, and start marketing within a week.

I am busy with clients all the time so the website kind of gets put on the back burner sometimes."

Must be one of Mason's landlord clients that makes a quarter million a year but lives in a shack.

What is your plan to get your first client?

Relay the business plan of the project you are working on to him/her and she can help give you some perspective on what their clients have offered over the years. 

Here PM companies are expected to provide routine checks of properties, both the commitment and cost are baked into the service offering - so ultimately the client pays (PM fees are typically 7-10%).It still falls short of what we do in-house for our own properties (one of the reasons we are growing our own capability).  

Lots of opportunities to buy great properties if you know what the look for (the sweet spot of property size/features as I like to tell my clients).

Try to find out if they are at each other's throats as if they are, you could go thru the entire Mortgage Loan process only to have one of the spouses' attorney wait until closing day and suddenly advise their client to not sign off on the sale in an attempt to extort concessions for their client from the other spouse!
