I am glad to see that Josh is now cleaning up shop.

I was told at the tile shop that through-body porcelain is the only kind of tile that's virtually impossible for tenants to ruin.

Having knowledge of the changes when dealing with the banks - should prove valuable versus less informed short sale shops.

Why do I have a sneaking suspicion that he may be shopping my offer with other investors.

If not, do you think it's worthwhile to shop around for a cheap <4% interest 30 year cash out refi to have the money to invest?

I was in the middle of shopping to refinance the property to a 30yr for a lower rate, but after my homepath contract was accepted, I have a few questions hoping I can get assistance on:1.

(Most are not motivated at all)I have gotten close to buying my first deal but something always happens to ruin it (like they shop around and find someone else to over pay for the property.)Overall I have not spoken with one person who is truly motivated.

BUT it didn't deter me...... we have no $$$ of our own..... we buy/hold, my husband has a great job prospect, so I had to be patient.... as our rentals build equity, as he moved up in the world...we collect our property.some we made work...forced to rent our our primary that is in boston (cash cow now)live in flip in a new construction in military town (only one that sold quickly b/c it was neutral)commercial retail shop (complete shot in the dark, cheaper than SFR, and it was $$$ and management FREE!)

Shop around for insurance, every couple of years in fact.

If you lack the time needed for the day-to-day management of your shopping centers, then you need someone with extensive expertise in the field that can be the catalyst for your property management requirements.
