Btw, we've had several agents thank us at the end of the process for forcing things to move quickly...they get their commission more quickly and ultimately, there is much less chance that some random occurrence keeps the property from closing...Lastly, I'll never keep a buyer's EM if they use my broker and my broker can't get the deal done (assuming the buyer doesn't screw something up).

Just some random ideas...Do you currently own property that you can pull equity out of?

And the remaining 10% of my partnerships end up with one side and/or the other wishing they had never worked together.That's a long way of saying that you probably have a 50/50 shot of a random partnership working out on a single deal. 

In this case, Zillow kindly referred MY post that I listed to some random realtor.. the people found it on Zillow.

If you pick randomly, you run the risk of putting the cart before the horse, and ending up with an unbalanced portfolio that could be riskier or out of sync with your investment goals.

There are always random break/fix maintenance items that occur on a monthly basis.

"Rewards Points".Although I only currently make the deals rather than fund them, if I were lending it would be rather tedious to sift through all those seeking funds on the boards.Part of being A PRO and having rewards would act as a filter and VET other members on both sides of borrowing and lending.I know I personally don't seek funds because it seems there are so many random post seeking funds that it seems futile.Anywho, just a thought!
