With the profit from my first deal, I plan to get licensed.I'd never considered being an agent before, but through talking with so many motivated sellers willing to sell for decent discounts (just not a wholesale deal discount), I can see how I'm leaving money on the table by not being able to list and market them myself.I'm willing to bet that I could make more as a seller's agent than as a wholesaler.

The valuation approach of options is universal, (check with the ISAB), I bet Canada has a civil code as well.

Hi Kyle, Having a great expediter is the key.. this person is the liaison bet DOB, your GC and your self.

You could put up a video of someone zip lining.As I said before, get on the big listing sites or smaller property management sites and study what is already available in the area, check out there calendars every 2 weeks to see how busy they are, what their seasonal prices are, amenities, the look & feel of the place, etc.Personally, I don't think you need to wait until after this ski season, I bet you could figure this out in 2 wks, it is the property hunting that took us the most time.  

Foreign investor who had been paying cash have slowed down quite a bit.. with many buying in your area frankly and other very tough rental markets and being sold crap properties for high prices and getting totally burned.. so they are much more cautious these days. 3. now that investor loans are back on the table investors are returning to pre 08 habits of obtaining debt when they can get it so they can leverage up...

Your best bet is to get actual copies of the historical utility bills.

Account Closed  what other kind of loan would it be.. just curious on your thought process there.Eddie not many of those around these days.. in 07 to 2010 ish you bet...

I am from bay area and hence cashflow here is impossible in good areas and people usually make money through appreciation.Not sure if the avivo homes area is a better location in San Luis obispo and maybe that is the reason the townhome is almost priced similar to a single family home at Toscano.I am mostly betting on appreciation.

Your best bet is some of the portfolio lenders who hold and service their own loans.

Wow, when I began reading this, I was thinking "I bet this is going to be an extremely successful airbnb story" lol!
