A broker knowing what you are looking for Is like a needle in a hay stack could look for months and months and not find it as people are throwing out multiple offers.Buyers have to be ready, willing, and able to buy AND I will add realistic.

The agent won't have as much skin in the game if you will as you do as the property owner.

I definitely like the idea of utilizing multiple strategies.

But this is just my opinion.In either case, make sure you get multiple bids and check references.

I don't discount most of your arguments, as they are very valid in multiple situations... but not all.Looking back we see things more clearly, or do we?

The contract is still with my attorneys (multiple for checks and balances) but it seems we're moving that direction.

I'm an experienced Property Manager with 7+ years of exp managing multiple apartment units ranging from 3 units up to 25 in the San Gabriel Valley.

It has really set me in a distressed spot.I have asked for help from people that have made it, they are successful and have multiple properties, but they won't help me.

People always act differently (more responsibly) when they have skin in the game.

I have gotten multiple LLC's for the layers of protection and the risk management that if one goes down I don't lose all assets in the others.
