Hey Everyone, I've newly moved to San Francisco, California (from San Jose) and I'm committed to beginning my Real Estate Investing journey.

I need someone who is committed ya know.

It seems like a pretty clear gambit by the seller to extract more money from a buyer who committed and was driving to his property.

If your tenant typically pays by check through USAA, that company has already committed to give free payday loans to military members who have their direct deposits through them, so even if we don't get paid on time, if he has USAA, he would have.As @John Andruszka Mentioned, I would suggest calling his First Sergeant as that is the person you will be able to get an answer from and most likely get paid.

So I think I'm leaning toward committing to take one of those classes in the Spring semester and hopefully the second either in the late spring or early summer.

Other than that - just commit to listening to all of the BiggerPockets Podcasts to get a real good feel for different ways to get started!

So it's not something you can do on the side you really have to commit to it in a sense.

Education & commitment can close the gap & you will see infinite opportunity in your own back yard.I hope you reconsider & review more information before you make your final choice.

I work full time and travel a lot so don't have a lot of time to commit to RE.

The purpose of the EM is to provide some level of financial commitment from the buyer, so the seller is more comfortable.The bigger issue here is that short sales can't easily be assigned.
