Dave Carpenter Thanks look forward to meeting like minded investors with good information to share.Brandon Turner will get that photo uploaded soon.Kay Mays will take your advice to heart and be as active as I possibly can.

In most areas your Board of Realtors has developed their contracts over time, mush has to do with the experiences and court cases in that jurisdiction.Those "consumer" covenants contained in a contract did not come out of thin air based on some bleeding heart Real Estate Broker, they came from findings in law, state court findings, attitudes and customs.RE Brokers are very risk adverse, they don't want any stone left unturned where that snake may be that can bite them.

@Jason Aviles  Our Brandon Turn wrote a great article here: How to Start Investing In Real Estate at a Young Age (or a “Young at Heart” Age) You might enjoy that.Personally, I landed a well paying/secure job at age 26 and I decided to save as much money as I could to buy my own primary residence to live in (I lived with my parents at the time).

They checked out otherwise...I have a heart, and figured people make mistakes, and I went against my gut.

Then you can put that savings to use and invest in whatever or wherever your heart desires. back to my original point - to house hack you need to be willing to put in a little bit more work (being a landlord/property manager) and deal with living next to your tenants, but the returns are worth it.

(Though at the very bottom of that 1% percentile)  I will actually be speaking at BPCon this October, if it ever happens on the subject of how vendors (agents, lenders, inspectors etc) can use the site to grow their business.I do admit though, I like the votes, just like people like the likes and hearts on other social media sites. 

PIP confused matters further by their communications and half-hearted explanations of the tax lien process which were couched in a way to confuse the investor.128.

I'm listening to every podcast, reading every blog, researching market analysis, and I currently have three books sitting in the passenger seat of my car (two business and one accounting).

Now we know a quick way to Jay's heart... large wire transfers.  

In the heart of central Pennsylvania I am overseeing a 60 unit, multi-family, town home flats project that sets the standard for energy efficient construction 70% higher than a LEED certification.
