This is the time period for me to learn up in preparation for jumping in at the end of the year!

Gauruv, I think you mean "remove the contingency" when you say "sign the contingency".If so, then yes, remove the contingency and let them know you're preparing to close, as per contract.

The landscape has definitely changed quickly, I know I wasn't really prepared for it.

I am Lawrence a licensed RE Agent in Southbay San Diego, I am preparing to start investing in residential RE as well.

Once that's done, and calls come in, I'll be prepared for the next step.

INSTALL NEW BLACK REFRIGERATOR, ELECTRIC STOVE, DISHWASHER AND MICRO HOOD: $2325.00PAINTING: PREPARE & PAINT ALL WALL SURFACES IN THE HOME.

We have also done some behind the scenes stuff to prepare us for future growth.

I'm looking to make a change in a BIG way and am now preparing to make the jump into real estate investing full-time.

I do appreciate the time and effort you put into your post and I definitely pulled good things out of it about the background and the real world example of what you need to be prepared for in a worst case scenario, so thank you.

Looking to gain additional knowledge, network with other professionals, and hopefully find a mentor to learn from so I can prepare myself to begin investing and doing deals within the year.I'm located in Camarillo, CA and currently work in the SFV.I have been following the forums for a few weeks now as a guest and decided it was time to register and step out of the shadows.
