I have no favorite type of real estate investment, except of course the type that make money.

A real estate broker may engage in a variety of real estate related activities including residential home sales, mortgage brokerage, and property management, among others.

Sorry for the novel, and I look forward to becoming an active member of this forum.

The MLS has an activity search which will pull up any properties that are new listings or have a price change in the last X amount of days.

I live in Lacrosse, anyone know of any active clubs close by?

With regard to bird-dogging. the "Real Estate Act of 2000" in Illinois, talks of words like "customer" versus "client" etc. and, talks of "activities not rising to the level of 'agency' or brokerage".

By renting to them you are helping people who are established felons, actively breaking the law.

Being an "active" investor versus a "passive" investor, which is where the 750 hour mark comes from, will allow you to carry over losses in real estate to compensate for other gains.

Here's the official word back:Per ORS 696.010 (11) "Professional real estate activity" (j); the person you pay a fee to would be doing professional real estate activity without a license.

I just don't know how financially sound of a decision it is, but I like to see the activity downtown.
