Honestly, I was shocked how quickly it sold.

We met a lady at one of the houses we were looking at, and she was so grateful that the current landlord/seller for giving her a chance b/c she used to be homeless and is now working at becoming a teacher, she actually got a loan and paid for a new roof, and to have the bathroom floor fixed-- both stuff completely shocked me!!! 

Wow I am actually shocked about the bad reviews you are seeing.

So many signs placed across the city and I was shocked by the recall I had of certain politician's names when it came time for me to cast my votes!

Honestly, I'm shocked that the lease has a provision that the lease can be terminated if the property changes hands.That's a violation of the principle that "the lease runs with the land."

It is the worlds financial capital and even withstood the shocks of the 911 attacks.

that's all I have done my entire adult life since I was first licensed at 18.. there is a difference in being a retail real estate sales person and using a license to further your investing goals.Its not an easy business by any means to be a retail agent and there is a high burn out rate.. not as high as wholesalers but its at least 50%...If your an ACTIVE investor I cant see how you can do without it.. if your fix and flipping in my mind its mandatory.its about 2k a year to keep sometimes less and If your business does not allow that or like some say the cost is to high then in my mind your not really in the business its a pittance to spend to have access to all the info and be in the club.if your goal is to be a lifelong landlord then work for a commercial brokerage that specializes in cash flow real estate just being there will open up doors.if by chance your very good at sales and have a very large warm market you may shock yourself in how much money you can make just in transactional real estate.. 

I would be shocked it you could pull something like this together in two weeks from a traditional bank. 

I find most of my clients from out of state are shocked when they get here and find out a 2,000 square foot house is 1,000 on the main and 1,000 in the basement.

We were shocked to hear from several of our tenants that the leases we were given were not the most recent copy.
