You have seen it for 3 years in your daily lives, when you go to the store, or buy a used car, try to buy a home, order parts for your widget company etc…So in summary, prices are here to stay and we need more homes to be built, likely catalyzed by proper incentives / less onerous regulation.

I have my broker's license and I still use my longtime realtor to show me properties; I just needed my broker's license to set up our property management company, and I also get to use it for full-time real estate professional purposes at tax time (I'm retired); I don't use it for looking at properties or anything of that sort. 

His primary home is also in it's own revocable trust.I don't believe he has any asset in his own name, everything in separate trusts.I believe on each trust he is the trustee with his son as the first named beneficiary.He also carries A LOT of insurance, uses a top property management company and all of his properties are in higher-end areas.I was curious, if he's involved in a lawsuit related to one of his properties - I know the trustee has to be identified and usually the target of the suit, but are the properties in his other separate trusts protected.

That way, you build an ongoing reputation and people are waiting for your next opening. 

I also talk to a local rental management company tomorrow to see what their projected rent would be for the property.

Sometimes a title company can get you the HOA rules before putting in an offer. 

- own them outright- plan to owner finance at 10% down 10% interest I use a title company and attorney for closing along with servicing company once done.
