I'd be interested in chatting sometime.

If you ever want to chat about the Vegas market, feel free to reach out.

I look forward to interacting with all of you and would love to hear from other investors/landlords also in the Boise area.

I would say try to chat up the appraiser about the local market, because many times you can immediately tell if you have someone who is not from the area or who doesn't do a ton of work in your area.

I see there is a great possibility we will interact as we are both in the bay area.

Consequently, your 401K can hire a property manager, and then you get to interact with them the same way you do your contractors.You cannot slop paint on the walls, shovel the snow, cut the grass or sweep the walk.

And only a couple percent of what I learned during those years was useful for this flip.PM me if you ever want to chat, and good luck.

I'm tremendously introverted and my license helps me immensely.Here's what I can accomplish with my license (regardless of my being introverted):- I get access to the MLS- I can see any listed house I want anytime without having to coordinate with another agent- I can be present at my buyer's inspections and appraisals without any issues (since I'm the agent representing the seller, who is me) and I can chat with the appraiser in a way a typical seller typically wouldn't- I can negotiate directly with the other agent, as opposed to having to go through another agent representing me- I can talk directly to my buyer's mortgage broker (buyer's are happy to give permission to the seller's agent)- I can call listing agents and ask questions like, "Do you have any offer on that property?

I've now listened to all 68 (as of March. 10th, 2014) of their podcasts (some of them several times) and always am encouraged from them to make a post to this community and interact, despite being a 'newbie'.

Through basic networking and sharing my REI goals with most people I interact with, this deal fell in my lap because someone heard about the seller's situation and they thought I might be interested.
