She has been doing these for years and covered virtually all types that you could ever think of.

I’ve been considering becoming a real estate agent in IL.The main reason being able to sell my own property, providing consulting services and access MLS for investing opportunities.Is the cost to be an agent virtually the same?

Example: my neighbor, who's cheap (and stingy), for years got away with buying junk, like refurbished no-name weedeaters from Big Lots, because he had a neighbor (me) who can fix virtually anything, and usually would in the interest of being a good neighbor.

@Adam Mazzochi @David Krulac  I think David will agree that Tax sales are very regional.you have tax cert sales  and tax deed sales then something in the middle.. its far more complicated out in the upper east than it is say in CA were I cut my teeth.. in CA its tax deed just like buying a foreclosure.and now a days you bid on line through Bid 4 Assets at most counties.. in the old days you went to the court house and it would be full.. but the bid process was much slower than an east coast tax cert sale.I have been to tax cert sales in MS for example they will sell 30,000 tax certs in 3 days it goes at lighting speed and there is virtually no way to hone in on one property and buy it..Maybe in your area it slows down and you can bid on what your aiming for..

@Patrick Desjardins  this is based on my personal experience of doing probably 100 plus of these. they all started off great but this was in PDX so other areas may be different.. only 2 ever paid us off.and more than 50% of mine defaulted within 24 months.but we were not dealing with low value assets.. so I can see if you have super low payments .. or something like that.. but that is my personal experience.. on the flip side on our performing notes that get set up correctly from the beginning default is virtually non existent.. but no one in the note business has zero defaults. that is for sure.I think this new scheme of grabbing NPN getting them paying for 6 months then call them performing and reselling them like they are performing is high risk.. but that's my take on it.

I have a virtual anomaly that I need advice and expertise.

I've met someone who pays Virtual Assistants to locate potential private money leads, learned all the SEC violations and how to avoid them when asking people to fund their projects, and taught a 5 hour class to teach others how to do it.

My personal favorite is blogging as this costs virtually nothing.

Hi everyone - I'm trying to determine which system makes more sense: having calls from seller leads come in to my VA or a call center. Has anyone had experience with both? Which would you recommend? I'm also trying to...

My complex is in an undesirable part of town: assaults, drug trafficking and the occasional murder all taking place virtually down the block.
