After all, they have SmartKey:http://www.baldwinhardware.com/Products/Compare-Portfolios/Prestige/SmartKeyReKeyTechnology.aspxAnd Kwikset and Baldwin both have the same parent company, so I would not be surprised if they share more in the way of lock technology.On every vacant property I have a lockbox.

@Tish Thorpe I think you are smart to think creatively about how to change your financial circumstances.I have only been following biggerpockets for a couple of weeks and I have been repeatedly surprised by how many people come to this site with exactly your plan - wholesaling to build up some cash and then be investors.I am sure some people have done it (starting careers through wholesaling) successfully.

I've met a few interesting folks there but I would be surprised if many knew about BiggerPockets.

(had to use an alarm)Moved rents from the rental accounts to the main checking.Negotiated and wholesaled a house for a fellow newbie BPer.Put one of my vacant rental homes up for sale.Got denied a refinance - no surprise, I mean with a 770 fico and tons of equity, I'm a real credit risk unlike these financial imbeciles with 3.5% down and a foreclosure on the record 3 years ago.Went to the dojo and punched a bunch of people in the face.Hung out on BP.In the words of Ice Cube, "It was a good day."

Randy, I share with you the surprise that a blatantly incorrect listing is not grounds for voiding the transaction.

Searched through biggerpockets and was surprised to see very little discussion on Trenton NJ.

That's surprising about inspectors dinging the 2-prong outlets.

We provided Insurance and support services to many of his clients and were surprised when he suddenly disappeared, leaving many of his clients not only without a property manager, but also not knowing what their properties were like of even if they were occupied.

I am hopeful once it is time there won't be any surprises. 

You might be surprised what some Realtors can do that have been around for 20+ years.
