You will have the disadvantage of competing with other retail buyers who may be wiling to spend more.

What is the experience of the other players?

I also happened to be the trustee and full beneficiary at the time so there weren't other players involved.

I absolutely love working with wholesalers that know what they are doing and are competent in putting together deals.

I would watch two things: (1) to see if asking prices for existing properties on the market that were damaged change downward (and if competing properties follow); and (2) if asking rents for damaged properties decline (and competing properties follow).

Your question should probably "Should I have a license", the answer again is yes, if there is a license that closely relates to your activities, I'd say yes.The reason any license exists in any endevor is based on the requirement to ensure competence in that area to protect the general public and to provide a legal standing to perform that activity.How are you expecting to close your note transactions?

@Steve L.Could I be so bold as to ask approx. how much someone like you mention is costing (I read the entry on your website about the process and I'm intrigued)I have a man who is very experienced (managed 98 units, licensed arborist, competent carpenter, plumbing and electric and roofing, intelligent, independent, etc. though he probably is a little perfectionist and might eat up some extra time that way) but he's self employed and billing at (an agreed upon) $27 per hour. this is higher than my main carpenter but he is much cheaper than my roofer, plumbier, etc. so it can even out.

Like many pro poker players confess, the best hands they ever played were ones that they folded.I respect how some of the folks on here are so adamant on their beliefs, just as I am.

If you go to these events consistently, you will start to notice the real big players.

Also I am looking for serious players, not the guy that rehabs one house per year.
