I can look up an agents ID and see what their sales activity is in the MLS as either buying or selling agents, and recently spoke to a buyers agent who offered assurance about doing the listing work, but the experience level didn't look so strong.

I would recommend staying active on this community, you will learn a lot more that way!

I did a project in 2012 with other two partners (one active on passive no salary for both).

Interesting, just last month at my place of business SCE came in and updated all of our florescent bulbs, ballasts and installed motion activated switches through out the building.

I see you were active in most and seem to like REO's over courthouse auctions, is this still the case?

You can even claim hardships that may temporarily delay collection activities if you provide proof of your hardship but it won't release the lien.

Many of the more aggressive banks will loan on this product too though.I consider sourcing money pretty much the highest value activity in running a real estate business.

As general consensus supports, contributing and being as active as possible in the community will help you get to where you want quicker...

The rest just depends on your business activity.

I have registered with Active Rain, a while ago, and was paying around $49 pm, after 2 months I asked to cancel, they ignored my request and after 7 months I discovered that they were still charging my card.
