I've spoken to multiple brokers who've told me my deal is a home run, only to have them use a lot of time and strike out.

Has anyone (or anyone you know) experienced success doing what the gurus suggest and sending multiple letters of intent?

A few suggestions which I think would enhance biggerpockets (some taken from vBulletin), in no particular order:* multi-quote - the ability to select multiple posts for quoting* kudos - ability to register approval of a post, or agreement with a point, and then count these and somehow rate posters - just provides more incentive to share and try to be constructive and helpful * ability to view the forum in wide screen format (maybe you can but I can't see how - the forum text only takes up about 30% of the width of my screen)* more/better emoticons - happy to suggest some if you like ;)* also I'd like emoticons inserted where the cursor is, rather than always at the end of the text (ie if you edit and want to insert an emoticon in an earlier para, you seem to be only able to do it by cutting and pasting the emoticon, which is always inserted at the very end of the whole post)* I imagine this is related to the fact that whenever you format some text, your cursor is moved to the very end of the post; I'd rather the cursor be left where it was just prior to applying formatting (eg bold)* ability to report/hide abusive posts, to try and stop conversations degenerating into slanging matches :roll: Love the forum - thanks, Josh.

I did an on-air ad/plug/interview on WLS (PEOPLLLE!)

If you are not in your local MLS (Multiple Listing Service), listed with an agent, you may not get found.

Judson just interviewed a student last week that had attended the course and he told how he had put the information to work and is really charging ahead with deals and working with the local governments to get backing from them.

Reason why is there could be multiple answer for that question, the answer depends on what are the state law in regards to Foreclosure.

If you applied both strategies simultaneously, you could buy multiple at a time now while RE is "on sale" and when it starts to climb down the road, you will have the advantage of many properties gaining appreciation.

Generally you would like to have multiple sources, or streams, of income.

Or you could just start calling title companies yourself and interviewing them.Basically just tell them what you plan to do and how you plan to do it, and if the gawk or have no idea what you are talking about, just go to the next one.
