I've established those relationships and those businesses are doing just fine.

It isn't the easiest thing to establish in a 3 or 4 bedroom home where you will have multiple personalities sharing a home but the results are worth the efforts.

Once an annual valuation period is established it may not be changed except for good cause.

The GCs that are well known and have well established systems(ie. marketing, websites) are usually going to have higher marked up prices, especially if the GC usually does projects for non-investors.

After you have established a broker (if not already) I would start doing open houses for other agents on the weekends.

If you are finding best real estate advisor for investments.

other than that you can talk to established wholesalers and buy their business but frankly they are not worth much .. other than buying a we buy ugly house franchise something like that. its just money.. lots of it to get any volume wholesaling. 

In five years, once well established, I'd move on.

I think the clerk was wrong because she never paid me any rent so a landlord/tenant relationship was never established but I wasn't going to argue with the clerk so I just waited 27 more days then filed. 

Both JAX and Indy have grown much more competitive for deals, and until you establish yourself in those markets, as a new out of state investor you are going to be last in line or end up over paying for wholesale or other deals.
