Looking to share as much knowledge as possible with other hosts, investors, agents and the community!

Well besides the CAR lease what do you recommend then? 

Thank you Ray - that's well thought out advice. 

If your goal is to get in the game, have a profitable investment, and build a team to set you up for future growth- the Allentown market will treat you well, even in its current state.

DFW area  Well done. 1st one is always the hardest.

Hi there, this looks to be a great forum and I can't wait to both contribute and learn from you all.

I have heard this as well.  

To list on the MLS, you will need a POA signed by the seller, which states that you can sign on behalf of the owner for listing documents and offers, as well as a signed purchase and sale agreement with an assignability and marketing clause."

Often the seller isn't really dealing with reality well - saying 'mentally challenged' is probably an over statement - but they are so desperate, or in such a bad way for whatever reason,  they will grasp at any straw put in front of them.  

BRRRRs are really tough right now with interest rates high, rents flat, contractors booked up, and tremendous competition for deals.i always get nervous with HELOCs as down payment because it can mean that you're not well capitalized.
