Well, I've been working with a buyers agent for close to a month now and he is really, really pissing me off lately.

The bathroom looked very "late '40s-early '50s" and there looked to be 3 coats of paint on the (I'm sure nice underneath) moulding.

And they will be a pain in the rear to actually get to finish up all their pieces.

The house is a new construction that is not finished.

When deals hit mls is that to late for a good deal.

It happens in "good markets".I am overseeing some houses getting built in Austin and when they started building last summer the value was $470,000 and now they won't sell for more then $375,000 and they are not even finished building it.Of course there are a few markets across the country where that is not the issue but most markets at this point have foreclosures hurting values.

(((I don't accept such things....it's time to break custom......at least offer it to the client, give them a chance to say what they will do....in this neck of the country someone will.....and as far as legality tell me the legal way to do what i want don't tell me it is illegal))))) I look for solutions and am very optomistic....I don't accept failure it isn't an option.Anyone can make money in real estate......ANYONE new investors or old salts.........You know that all of life is unforgiving.I learned from the school of hard knocks.Mistakes, hmmm I've made a few ....is an understatement.JUST DO IT ..............is how we get over those fears.If you don't take the first step then you can never finish the journey because you will never start.L....abor Luck is never had by those who do nothing.U....nderC....orrectK....owlegeWhen I say JUST DO IT...........I truely mean thatIt must be followed up with NEVER GIVE UP NEVER SURRENDER....This business eats up long time investors too.70 percent of the millionaires in this country come from real estate investing.Your in the game like it or notat the age of 65 only 3 percent of the population will be financially independent.Your in the game like it or not ....will you be the 3% or the 97% that is dead broke or still working?

She was running really late, so I had a chance to hang out in the nieghborhood.

It is never too late to start working on your credit.
