I guess I could see it 20 years down the road but I’ll probably be dead by then.

Are there any stocks that govern the real estate world?

its the same with flipping.. if everyone that went to a wholesaling and flipping course actually did any thing.. there simply is not that much inventory to buy in most markets.. it works in the still dead and dying areas were you may have 2 to 5k vacant homes in an MSA  it works fine there still.. but in most markets no way.. very tough.the guys I know that do wholesaling profitably and not just sitting home by themselves have Massive marketing budgets  10 to 50k a MONTH.. they have staff they have closers that go out and do the deals.. they run it as a vertically intergrated business.. and those guys can make good money 500 to 1 million or more a year net.. that's good money.. 

To me, I think there are other opportunities to invest that money at a higher rate of return, whether that's in another RE deal, the stock market, etc.  

Feeling like I reached the Dead End of life, the stress grew in me and I knew I needed help.

I just created this account so my bad if I wrote this incorrectly.I’ve always had some sort of aptitude to invest to get rich now, not later. investments like stocks aren’t my thing because I don’t want to buy a stock and have to wait 10+ years to potentially sell it.

When I got let go from that low paying dead end job at the hazardous polyurethane plant, I went back to school for Supply Chain Management/Logistics Management (transportation).

Pier 1 is a fairly old brand too so on the weaker end of the retail list.I just checked out the stock price - from $20 a share five years ago to $1.5 now.

For 'call back' outcomes, I would follow up with phone calls until the lead becomes a purchase, or until it's a dead lead.

I'm sure the dead beat ex-tenant isn't expecting anything back but cover your A and send the itemized letter.
