@Jay MottIn terms of most deals - high equity absentee due to the volume and scalability for this type of list.In terms of highest response/conversion rates - pre-foreclosures but that's with a huge tip that I'm not posting publicly here because I've seen a lot of people F* this up and give bad advice on BP about this - feeding trolls and silly chaos ensues.

Businesses may only do what they are expressly permitted to do in their founding docs.Aside from the limitations (and public record) that places on your own business, if you take Joe's advice and sell that LLC ... among other things the buyer would have to amend the articles to do anything else.

Makes a huge difference on both appearance and buyers/renters perception of the home.  

You can come in up to 4 units with as little as 3% down.Also, since you're a public service employee, there may be special programs for you from the city/county that you live in.

I have been working for a few years (started at a Big 4 public accounting firm) and have now recently transitioned into the private sector.

When you post on a public forum, you are asking for public opinion.

I think because of that publicity, it makes it a place people want to live and a place investors want to invest. 

The rule requiring clear and prominent identificationof the employing broker ensures that the public is made aware of the person or entityresponsible for supervision.

I wonder why so many people are hung up with HARD MONEY - WHAT'S wrong with soft money, owner financing, delayed settlement, hybrid offers, control & roll, assignments -  public auctions, not sure what's wrong with the new investors generation?

It's things like putting for sale signs in yards and public advertisements that get people in trouble I guess...those are agent/broker activities.
